Human interferon-gamma enhances the expression of class I and class II major histocompatibility complex products in neoplastic cells more effectively than interferon-alpha and interferon-beta
Abstract
Human interferon-gamma was more effective than interferon-beta or -alpha in stimulating production of immunoassociated antigens; HLA-A, -B, and -C; and beta(2)-microglobulin in human M14 and Namalva cells. The comparison was made on the basis of antiviral units, and the stimulation could be abolished by treatment of the interferon-gamma preparation with pH 2 or anti-interferon-gamma serum.
