Vesicular stomatitis virus and encephalomyocarditis virus do not multiply in the majority of peritoneal macrophages freshly explanted from 4- to 8-week-old male or female mice. However, when peritoneal macrophages were cultivated in vitro for 3 to 5 days, these cells became permissive for both viruses. The loss of antiviral state in "aged" macrophages paralleled a significant decrease in the intracellular levels of (2'-5')oligo-adenylate synthetase activity. Although biologically active interferon was not detected in the nutrient medium of macrophage cultures, freshly harvested peritoneal cells could confer an antiviral state on monolayer cultures of mouse cells (aged macrophages, embryonic fibroblasts, and L cells) but not on heterologous chicken embryo, rabbit kidney, or human cells infected with vesicular stomatitis virus or encephalomyocarditis virus. The conferred antiviral state required at least 7 h to develop in target cells and was totally inhibited by the presence of antibody to mouse interferon alpha/beta but not to interferon gamma in the cocultures. Heterologous guinea pig and rabbit peritoneal cells could not transfer an antiviral state to target mouse cells. Donor peritoneal cells from mice preinjected with antibody to interferon alpha/beta could not transfer an antiviral state to target mouse cells. This ensemble of results indicating that freshly harvested peritoneal cells transfer interferon (which is responsible for inducing an antiviral state in susceptible mouse target cells) adds further experimental evidence that interferon is spontaneously expressed in normal mice and plays an important role in maintaining some host cells in an antiviral state.
