Interferon Stimulating Effect of Ciwujia Eleutherosides or Polysaccharide in S801 Leukemic Cell Cultures / 中国免疫学杂志

S801 leukemic cell line established by our department was used as cells for interferon (IFN) induction and stimulating induction. S801 cell culture of concentration of 5-8x10~6 cells/ml was used for IFN induction and IFN titer of 3.55 Lg IU/ml was obtained by classical procedure. The IFN titer obtained S801 cell cultures after pretreatment with Ciwujia eleutherosides B. D and E or polysaccharide (PES) combined with priming procedure,then using Sendai Virus as an inducer was 10-20 times higher than that in cultures without any pretreatment. These Chinese medical herbs may be the ideal IFN helpinducers. This cell line may be applied for IFN production.
