Protein induction by new antiviral preparations of dsRNAs (larifan, ridostin, rifastin and poly(A).poly(U)) and recombinant beta-interferon in human fibroblasts (M19) was studied. The common gene products: 88, 80, 68, 58, 56, 52, 50 and 26 kD were detected in the spectra of the induced cytoplasmic polypeptides. At the same time the sets of the induced proteins had individual distinctions in various preparations. Induction of the 56-kD protein was more essential in the action of dsRNAs than that of interferon. The antiviral activity of dsRNAs and interferon preparations correlated with a relative increase in the synthesis of proteins with molecular weights of 88, 80 and 58 kD. The study results are in agreement with the fact that the dsRNAs have interferon-independent pathways of antiviral action with participation of 56- and 58-kD protein genes.

The dynamics of protein kinases activity in nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions of human fibroblasts treated by preparations of natural and synthetic dsRNA (ridostin, rifastin, larifan and poly(I).poly(C), DEAE-dextran and dsRNA complexes with DEAE-dextran), as well as by preparations of recombinant alpha-2 and beta-1 interferons was obtained. The early activation of enzymes in treated cells extracts and their presence in dsRNA-activated and nonactivated forms were found. In cytoplasmic cellular fractions treated by interferons the dsRNA dependent protein kinases (nonactivated forms- were prevalent.r In contrast, in dsRNA treated cells or dsRNA complexes with DEAE-dextran treated ones the dsRNA independent protein kinases (activated forms) were found, while dsRNA dependent forms induced by interferons were found at later periods. Nuclear protein kinases are mainly dsRNA independent making possible the supposition of their intracellular activation by incoming dsRNA or interferon-induced formation of ds-structures in cellular nuclei. In phosphorylated proteins spectre the 90, 69, 45-40 and 30-35 kDa polypeptides were found. At early intervals in nuclear fractions was found a nuclease resistant and partially EDTA resistant high molecular phosphorylated complex (120 kDa). The complex is, probably, capable of dissociation to low mol mass components. DEAE-dextran induces strong activation of protein kinases in cytoplasm and nuclei and increases the content of activated forms of enzyme in larifan treated cells.

Novel original preparations of double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs), i.e. larifan, ridostin and rifastin, and recombinant alpha 2- and beta-interferons promising for the clinical use were studied. The size and morphology of the dsRNAs in the preparation composition, the dynamics of their induction of interferon and the antiviral state in human fibroblasts and the effect of the DEAE dextran polycation on the activity of the dsRNAs were specified. For the first time the dynamics of 2',5'-oligoadenylate synthetase activity in the nuclei and cytoplasm of the human fibroblasts treated with the dsRNAs of different origin and their complexes with DEAE dextran was defined. To elucidate the specific features of the mechanism of antiviral action of dsRNAs and interferon, the relation of the 2',5'-oligoadenylate synthetase activity to dsRNAs was investigated. In the cells treated with dsRNAs and DEAE dextran there were an early activation of the enzyme and predominance of the enzyme activated forms requiring no addition of poly I.poly C to the reaction mixture. The results were indicative of possible intracellular activation of its isoforms, similar to that in the cells treated with interferon and contaminated with viruses. All the tested preparations of dsRNAs and interferons induced an increase in the activity of 2',5'-oligoadenylate synthetase both in the cytoplasm and the nuclei of human fibroblasts. The same ability was observed in DEAE dextran which is likely to be one of the causes of the increase in dsRNAs antiviral activity under its effect.
