A marked virus-inhibiting potency is obtained in the serum after intraperitoneal injection of polyacrylic acid (PAA) and polymethacrylic acid (PMAA) in mice. Much higher antiviral levels were reached than for other related polymers including dextran sulfate, heparin, polyvinyl sulfate, pyran copolymer, polystyrene sulfonate, and macrodex. The broad antiviral action of PAA and PMAA was attributed both to a direct interference with the virus-cell interaction and the viral ribonucleic acid metabolism and to the formation of an interferon-like factor. Both polyanions differed in interferon-inducing ability: highest serum interferon titer was obtained 18 hr after the intraperitoneal injection of PAA. The mechanism of interferon production by PAA and PMAA is discussed. As described previously for Sindbis virus and endotoxin, the animals also became hyporeactive after injection of PAA.
