Incubation of cultured human melanoma cells with human leukocyte interferon did not change the expression of melanoma-associated antigens (MAA) recognized by monoclonal antibodies and of Ia-like antigens but significantly increased the expression of HLA-A,B antigens and of beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2-mu). The effect is dependent on the dose of interferon and on the incubation time. Interferon-treated melanoma cells showed an increased susceptibility to lysis mediated by monoclonal antibodies to HLA-A,B antigens and to human beta 2-mu; on the other hand, interferon-treated melanoma cells did not change in their susceptibility to murine natural killer (NK) cell lysis and to immune lysis mediated by monoclonal antibodies to MAA and to Ia-like antigens, and they displayed a reduced susceptibility to human NK cell lysis. Therefore, the increased susceptibility of interferon-treated melanoma cells to lysis mediated by anti HLA-A,B and anti beta 2-mu monoclonal antibodies is likely to reflect the increase in cell surface expression of the corresponding antigens.
