Abstract
Lymphocytes stimulated with alfa-interferon released a chemotactic factor for neutrophils. The process was not inhibited by cycloheximide, whereas mepacrine completely inhibited release of the chemotactic activity. The chemotactic factor was resistant to storage, heat treatment and proteolysis. Recombinant alfa-interferon did not stimulate lymphocytes to release a neutrophil chemotactic factor.
