Abstract

The recombinant gamma-interferon (LBD-001) which was produced by yeast as host system was investigated on the pharmacological activities. This gamma-interferon exhibited potent inhibitory effect on adjuvant induced arthritis, but no effect on carrageenin induced paw edema in rats. It did not show any sedative, anticonvulsive, analgesic and hypothermic activities in animals. It also had no influences on isolated tracheal muscle and ileum of guinea pig, isolated uterus and fundus strip of rats, and on blood pressure and respiration in situ experiments of rabbits.
