The role of gamma interferon in infection of susceptible mice with murine coronavirus, MHV-JHM	1991		.txt	text/plain	3861	182	45	Infection of BALB/c mice with mouse hepatitis virus, strain JHM (MHV-JHM), at any of several intervals relative to ovalbumin (OVA) administration resulted in elevated OVA-specific IgG 2 a titers. Serum IFN-γ was not detected, but treatment of MHV-JHM-infected mice with monoclonal anti-IFN-γ antibody resulted in high mortality with decreased survival times, enhanced virus titers in liver and spleen, and more severe virus-associated pathology, compared to mock-treated, infected mice. Sera from mice infected with MHV-JHM one day prior to OVA administration contained substantially elevated levels of antigen-specific IgG2 a on day 7 (Table 1 ) with geometric mean titers that were 17 times control (OVA only) values at that interval. The elevated IgG 2 a OVA-specific response of most groups of MHV-infected mice and the preferential production of this isotype by mice infected one day prior to antigen administration suggested that these mice were producing IFNy. However, using the WEHI 279 B cell lymphoma bioassay [24] , attempts to detect the cytokine in sera of infected mice failed, as had earlier attempts to 27] .	./cache/cord-341278-klv9jdm8.txt	./txt/cord-341278-klv9jdm8.txt
