Human peripheral blood monocytes in culture secrete tumor necrosis factor (TNF), which can be detected with a sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay system. When recombinant human interferon-gamma (rIFN-gamma) is added to cultured cells, TNF production is increased. rIFN-gamma is also able to sustain the elevated production level of TNF over a 4-day period. Recombinant interferon-alpha (rIFN-alpha) was unable to stimulate increased TNF production. Unstimulated mononuclear phagocytes and rIFN-alpha-treated cells decreased secretion of TNF over a 4-day interval. The stimulatory effect of rIFN-gamma was dose dependent and required both new RNA and protein synthesis and was independent of endotoxin in the tissue culture medium.
