Transcriptional responses of tumor cell lines to interferon-alpha [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Interferon is an antiviral and antiproliferative cytokine therapeutically applied to treat hepatitis infection and cancer expansion. The beneficial effects of interferon-alpha are dependent on efficient signaling by activation of defined JAK-STAT pathway

Retreatment with interferon-alpha and ribavirin in primary interferon-alpha non-responders with chronic hepatitis C [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Background/Aims: Combination therapy with interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) plus ribavirin is more efficacious than IFN-alpha monotherapy in previously untreated patients with chronic hepatitis C and patients with IFN-alpha relapse.

Adding low-dose antidepressants to interferon alpha treatment for chronic hepatitis C improved psychiatric tolerability in a patient with schizoaffective psychosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Treatment of chronic hepatitis C with interferon alpha (IFN-alpha) is relatively contraindicated in patients with psychiatric disorders because of possible severe psychiatric side effects.

Comparison of the Effects of Early Pregnancy with Human Interferon, Alpha 2 (IFNA2), on Gene Expression in Bovine Endometrium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Interferon tau (IFNT), a type I IFN similar to alpha IFNs (IFNA), is the pregnancy recognition signal produced by the ruminant conceptus. To elucidate specific effects of bovine IFNT and of other conceptus-derived factors, endometrial gene expression ...

Interferon signalling in the liver : implications for the natural course and therapy of hepatitis C [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Hepatitis C virus is a global health concern, estimated to infect 2-3% of the world's population. Inter-individual differences in the course of infection and response to therapy, highlighted by recent genomewide association studies, point to the crucial ...

Activation of PKR by Bunyamwera virus is independent of the viral interferon antagonist NSs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is a by-product of viral RNA polymerase activity, and its recognition is one mechanism by which the innate immune system is activated.

Dengue virus inhibits alpha interferon signaling by reducing STAT2 expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Type 1 interferons (IFN-?/?) are key mediators of innate antiviral responses but havelittle effect on established replication of dengue viruses, which are mosquito-borneflaviviruses of immense global health importance.

Chikungunya virus nonstructural protein 2 inhibits type I/II interferon-stimulated JAK-STAT signaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an emerging human pathogen transmitted by mosquitoes. Like that of other alphaviruses, CHIKV replication causes general host shutoff, leading to severe cytopathicity in mammalian cells, and inhibits the ability of infected ...

Interfering with interferon: developing a reporter system to study the interaction between hepatitus C viral proteins and the interferon signalling pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
PhDThe aim of the project was to investigate the mechanism by which HCV evades therapeutic IFN treatment. This involved the development of novel testing systems and their application to patient samples.
