RESUMO
Three antiviral isatinisothiosemicarbazones strongly inhibited the incorporation of [3H]uridine into the ribonucleic acid (RNA) of FL cells as a consequence of the inhibition of uridine transport. After prelabeling of cells at a low temperature (1 h at 16 C) with uptake of [3H]uridine into the acid-soluble nucleotide pool, the later addition of the test compounds revealed only a small or negligible influence on host-directed RNA synthesis. The pulse-labeled soluble nucleotide pool of FL cells was sufficient to give a gradual increase in incorporation into RNA over a period of 7 h. With the same method of prelabeling at the beginning of the experiment, it was also possible to detect virus-induced RNA synthesis in the presence of actinomycin D. In this way the specific inhibitory action of the three isatinisothiosemicarbazones on viral RNA synthesis could be demonstrated.
