The effects of alpha and gamma interferons on human lung cancer cells grown in vitro or as xenografts in nude mice.

We have compared the effects of alpha and recombinant gamma interferons (IFNs) on the growth of human lung cancer cell lines in vitro. There was a diversity of response amongst the lines studied, the most sensitive being COR-L23 (a large cell anaplastic carcinoma line) and POC (a small cell line). I...

description We have compared the effects of alpha and recombinant gamma interferons (IFNs) on the growth of human lung cancer cell lines in vitro. There was a diversity of response amongst the lines studied, the most sensitive being COR-L23 (a large cell anaplastic carcinoma line) and POC (a small cell line). In these two lines, IFN-gamma was found to be more potent than IFN-alpha. During cell growth of line POC in the presence of IFN-gamma no significant shift in cell cycle distribution occurred. When lines COR-L23 and POC were grown as xenograft tumours in nude mice, daily injection of 4 X 10(5) units per mouse per day of IFN-gamma produced no discernible retardation of tumour growth.
