The interferon-induced enzyme 2-5A synthetase can be a sensitive indicator of activation of the human interferon system during viral infection or interferon therapy. To determine the response of the human interferon system to viral antigens, the level of 2-5A synthetase activity was monitored in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of healthy adults before and after immunization with influenza or rubella virus vaccine. The influenza virus-vaccinated individuals demonstrated increases in enzyme activity on days 1 and 11 in vivo, whereas those vaccinated with rubella virus vaccine showed an increase only on day 11. The difference in the day 1 in vivo 2-5A synthetase response in the two vaccinated groups could be demonstrated by in vitro incubations of peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated approximately 90 days postvaccination with the two vaccines. The day 11 increase of enzyme activity in the rubella virus group showed a positive correlation with an increase in serum antibody titer, suggesting activation of the interferon system during antibody production in vivo after human exposure to virus antigens. The demonstration of increased 2-5A synthetase activity at specific times postimmunization in this investigation indicates that the interferon system is involved in the human in vivo response to virus vaccination.
