Abstract

The effect of interferon on mouse and human in vitro erythropoiesis was investigated using the mouse marrow CFU-E and the human blood BFU-E systems, respectively. Homologous interferons were found to have a marked inhibitory effect on mouse CFU-E and human BFU-E proliferation. This inhibitory effect was dose related and independent of the erythropoietin concentration used. The effective concentration of human interferon was within the range observed in humans following viral infections. It is suggested that interferon may play a role in the mechanism of the acute erythroblastopenic crisis observed at times in patients with chronic anemia following viral infections.
