Fluctuation of oligo-2',5'-adenylate synthetase (2-5AS) activity was examined in K562 cells infected with vaccine strains of measles virus (strains AIK-C and CAM-70) and mumps virus (strains Torii and Miyahara). Persistent infection was easily established in the mumps virus-infected cells without significant cytolysis or cell killing. In contrast, most of the cells infected with measles virus were killed by extensive cytolysis within 3 to 4 days. The small number of cells that did survive became persistently infected. That these persistently infected cells carried a virus antigen was confirmed by fluorescein isothiocyanate-labelled anti-measles virus rabbit antiserum and anti-mumps virus rabbit antiserum. The cells produced infectious progeny virus as well as interferon (IFN). Little induction of 2-5AS activity by IFN was demonstrated during the early stages of infection by these viruses. Similar results were observed in some of the persistently infected cells but not, however, K-CMP cells (K562 cells persistently infected with CAM-70) or K-MMP cells (K562 cells persistently infected with Miyahara). Failure to induce 2-5AS activity was unchanged in cells cultured for more than 6 months. The decrease of 2-5AS activity observed in K-MTP cells (K562 cells persistently infected with Torii) was the result of suppression of transcription of 2-5AS mRNA. On the other hand, a normal level of mRNA was found in K-AKP cells (K562 cells persistently infected with AIK-C). Therefore, it is suggested that the decrease of 2-5AS activity in K-AKP cells may be due to a failure to translate 2-5AS mRNA.

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between force and rate of force development with electroencephalogram correlates. The primary question was whether the different components of movement related potentials (MRPs) were related to specific properties of force output while subjects performed index finger force production tasks. The peak force and rate of force development (e.g., a product of peak force over time-to-peak force) were manipulated, and the effects of these manipulations on components of MRPs preceding and accompanying force production tasks were examined. The hypothesis was that the rate of force development, rather than level of force itself, would directly influence the later component of MRPs. Consistent with this hypothesis was the finding that the amplitudes of MRP components preceding (MP) and accompanying (MMP, MTP) finger force production movements were significantly correlated with force development rate.
