Abstract
Temafloxacin increased interleukin-2 production and mRNA levels and enhanced thymidine incorporation in stimulated lymphocyte cultures. Gamma interferon mRNA levels were unaffected. Temafloxacin also stimulated interleukin-2 gene induction, as revealed in a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase reporter gene system. However, temafloxacin exerted significantly weaker effects in these respects than did ciprofloxacin.
