Role of gamma interferon in the pathogenesis of bacteremic pneumococcal pneumonia.

J B Rubins1, C Pomeroy.   

Abstract

Gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) concentrations in blood, but not in lungs, rose significantly at 24 to 48 h after murine pulmonary infection with virulent pneumococci. In contrast, infection with avirulent pneumococcal strains produced minimal rises in serum IFN-gamma concentrations. Compared with that of immunocompetent mice, mortality was appreciably increased after pulmonary infection of IFN-gamma gene knockout mice, suggesting a protective role for IFN-gamma in host response to pneumococcal disease.
