Abstract
Depending on the spacing of their positive charges, ionenes, a class of quaternary ammonium polymers, increased the interferon-inducing activity of poly(inosinic acid).poly(cytidylic acid) in mouse L-929 cells, whereas they did not enhance poly(inosinic acid).poly(cytidylic acid) induced interferon production in primary rabbit kidney and human skin fibrolast cells.
