The effects of human leukocyte interferon (HulFN-alpha) and fibroblast interferon (HulFN-beta) on cell growth and induction of antigens related to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in a nasopharyngeal carcinoma hybrid cell line (NPC-KT) were studied. HulFN-alpha showed little antiproliferative and anti-EBV effect on NPC-KT cells. On the other hand, HulFN-beta showed modest antiproliferative effect on NPC-KT cells; the effect was dependent on time and HulFN-beta concentration. HulFN-beta alone was ineffective in inhibiting EBV-related antigens, but NPC-KT cells treated for more than 1 week with HulFN-beta inhibited the action of the chemical inducer of EBV, n-butyric acid, and the appearance of EBV-induced early antigen and EB viral capsid antigen was inhibited more than 50% compared with NPC-KT cells treated with n-butyric acid alone.
