Activation of the arachidonic acid metabolism seems to be one of the post-receptor mechanisms by which interferon-alpha induces antiviral protein synthesis. In this study, we evaluated the changes on serum 2'5'-oligoadenylate synthetase levels induced by acute administration of interferon-alpha, indomethacin and interferon-a plus indomethacin in 21 patients with hepatitis B or C virus chronic active hepatitis. Serum samples for 2'5'-oligoadenylate synthetase determination were collected in basal conditions and 8 h after the administration of interferon-alpha, indomethacin and interferon-alpha plus indomethacin. Compared to control value (mean +/- SE) (40.2 +/- 7.9 pg/dl) serum 2'5'-oligoadenylate synthetase concentration was significantly increased 1.5-fold after interferon-alpha (63.4 +/- 11, p
