Induction of beta 2-interferon by tumor necrosis factor: a homeostatic mechanism in the control of cell proliferation.

Abstract

Earlier studies showed that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) exerts a mitogenic effect in human diploid fibroblasts. Here we demonstrate that purified E. coli-derived recombinant human TNF inhibits encephalomyocarditis virus replication in "aged" human fibroblasts. Addition of neutralizing antibodies to human beta interferon (IFN-beta) blocked the antiviral action of TNF, indicating that this action is mediated by the generation of IFN-beta. We also show that antiserum to IFN-beta enhanced the mitogenic effect of TNF in confluent, serum-starved human fibroblasts, suggesting that induction of IFN-beta by TNF represents a physiological negative feedback mechanism regulating cell proliferation. Blot hybridization analysis of cytoplasmic polyadenylated RNA showed that TNF induced IFN-beta 2 mRNA, whereas no induction of IFN-beta 1 mRNA could be demonstrated. The results suggest that IFN-beta 2 has biological functions distinct from the other interferons.
