Abstract excerpt
Three variants of the human monoblastic cell line U937 with different degrees of sensitivity to the antiproliferative action of interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha were examined for phenotypic differences. The highly IFN-sensitive variant U937-V expressed twice as many IFN-alpha binding sites as both its IFN-alpha-resistant derivative U937-VR and the cell line U937 exhibiting a 20-fold reduction in IFN-alpha sensitivity...
