Activation of the cGAS‐STING‐IRF3 Axis by Type I and II Interferons Contributes to Host Defense

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Interferons (IFNs) activate JAK‐STAT pathways to induce downstream effector genes for host defense against invaded pathogens and tumors. Here both type I (β) and II (γ) IFNs are shown that can activate the transcription factor IRF3 in parallel with STAT1.

Depression and anxiety disorders during pegylated interferon treatment in patients with chronic hepatitis B

open access: yesPsychiatry and Clinical Psychopharmacology, 2017
Objectives: Interferon (IFN) treatment has many neuropsychiatric side effects such as depression and anxiety disorder. Although untreated depression is a major contributor to dosage reduction or premature discontinuation of the IFN treatment, it is found

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Association of IFNL3 rs12979860 and rs8099917 with biochemical predictors of interferon responsiveness in chronic hepatitis C virus infection

open access: yes, 2013
Background & Aims: Genetic variations near the interferon lambda 3 gene (IFNL3, IL28B) are the most powerful predictors for sustained virologic response (SVR) in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, compared to other biochemical or ...

The N-terminus of Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus NSs protein is essential for interferon antagonism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This work is supported by UK MRC and BBRCBunyamwera virus NSs protein is involved in the inhibition of cellular transcription and the interferon (IFN) response, and it interacts with the Med8 component of Mediator.

In turkeys, unlike chickens, the non-structural NS1 protein does not play a significant role in the replication and tissue tropism of the H7N1 avian influenza virus

open access: yesVirulence
The economic losses caused by high pathogenicity (HP) avian influenza viruses (AIV) in the poultry industry worldwide are enormous. Although chickens and turkeys are closely related Galliformes, turkeys are thought to be a bridging host for the ...

Transcriptional profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles from prebiopsy prostate cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RNA profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) from blood samples of men undergoing prostate biopsy identifies transcripts associated with clinically significant prostate cancer. Integrative analysis with public tumor datasets links EV‐derived gene signatures to tumor stage and progression‐free survival, highlighting CASP3, XRCC2, and RIT1 ...

Generation of replication-proficient Influenza Virus NS1 point mutants with interferon-hyperinducer phenotype

open access: yes, 2014
The NS1 protein of influenza A viruses is the dedicated viral interferon (IFN)-antagonist. Viruses lacking NS1 protein expression cannot multiply in normal cells but are viable in cells deficient in their ability to produce or respond to IFN.

Role of interferon regulatory factors in predicting the prognosis of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever

open access: yesTürk Biyokimya Dergisi
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a severe viral illness with a high fatality rate. The interferon response plays a crucial role in the antiviral defense against the CCHF virus (CCHFV).
