Peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) is a morbillivirus that produces clinical disease in goats and sheep. We have studied the induction of interferon-β (IFN-β) following infection of cultured cell
This study shows that in the absence of Atf3, primary mouse macrophages display significantly greater basal and PRR-inducible IFNβ expression. This regulation appears to be directly on the level of If
RNA-seq was used to profile gene expression changes in human tracheobronchial epithelial (HTBE) and A549 cells following type I interferon treatment. Overall design: Transcriptomic comparison of type
Recent identification of IL28B gene polymorphisms associated with hepatitis C virus (HCV) clearance suggests a role for type III interferons (IFNs) in hepatitis C infection. The function of type III I
Type I interferons (IFNs) play a key role in linking the innate and adaptive immune responses. IFNs can have both positive and negative effects on the development of memory CD8+ T cells, but their con
