Article Title: The effects of treatment with human β-interferon on the stimulation of thymidine uptake and DNA synthesis by colchicine in human fibroblasts
Abstract: The marked inhibition by β-interferon (IFN) of colchicine-induced incorporation of [3H]-thymidine into DNA of human fetal lung fibroblasts reflects inhibition of uptake of labeled precursor, rather than an effect on DNA synthesis per se. The percent of cells in S phase as measured with flow cytometry was unchanged by a concentration of IFN that reduced the uptake of labeled thymidine by 50% at 30 h after treatment. © 1985, Mary Ann Liebert, Inc.
