Interferons lambda, new cytokines with antiviral activity

open access: yesActa virologica, 2013
Interferons (IFNs) are key cytokines in the establishment of a multifaceted antiviral response. Three distinct types of IFNs are now recognized (type I, type II, and type III) based on their receptor usage, structural features and biological activities.

The role of genomic data in the discovery, annotation and evolutionary interpretation of the interferon-lambda family.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BackgroundType-I interferons, type-II interferons, and the IL-10 family are helical cytokines with similar three-dimensional folds. However, their homologous relationship is difficult to detect on the basis of sequence alone. We have previously described

Interferon lambda 1 is associated with dengue severity in Thailand

open access: yesInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2020
Objectives: Patients with dengue exhibit a range of symptoms from an acute febrile illness (dengue fever, DF), to dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), and to the most severe outcome, dengue shock syndrome (DSS).

Macrophages and neutrophils express IFNλs in granulomas from Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected nonhuman primates

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Granulomas are the hallmark of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection. Cytokine-mediated signaling can modulate immune function; thus, understanding the cytokine milieu in granulomas is critical for understanding immunity in tuberculosis (TB ...

Predictive value of interferon-lambda gene polymorphisms for treatment response in chronic hepatitis C.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundIL28B gene polymorphism is the best baseline predictor of response to interferon alfa-based antiviral therapies in chronic hepatitis C. Recently, a new IFN-L4 polymorphism was identified as first potential functional variant for induction of ...

A Prospective Study of Individuals at Risk of Multiple Sclerosis Informs the Design of Primary Prevention Studies

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective In multiple sclerosis, the optimal time for deploying a therapeutic intervention is before the central nervous system is damaged; given the success of trials treating the earliest stage of MS, the radiologically isolated syndrome, developing primary prevention strategies is an important next challenge.

IFN-Lambda 3 Mediates Antiviral Protection Against Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus by Inducing a Distinct Antiviral Transcript Profile in Porcine Intestinal Epithelia

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Type III interferon-lambda (IFN-λ) plays a critical role against infection, particularly in mucosal infection in the respiratory and gastrointestinal tract.

Interferon lambda 4 genotype and pathway in alcoholic hepatitis

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2021
Single nucleotide polymorphisms within the interferon lambda 4 (IFNL4) gene influence liver inflammation and fibrosis in chronic liver disease. We investigated whether this is also the case during acute liver disease, alcoholic hepatitis. We, therefore, related variants within the IFNL4 gene to the clinical course of acute alcoholic hepatitis, and ...
