Interferon induction by the immunomodulating polyanion lambda carrageenan [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1979
The lambda fraction of carrageenan induced murine interferon, which was characterized by sensitivity to trypsin and inhibition by pretreatment of target cells with actinomycin D.

Interferon-Lambda: A New Addition to an Old Family [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Interferon & Cytokine Research, 2010
The discovery and initial description of the interferon-lambda (IFN-lambda) family in early 2003 opened an exciting new chapter in the field of IFN research. There are 3 IFN-lambda genes that encode 3 distinct but highly related proteins denoted IFN-lambda1, -lambda2, and -lambda3. These proteins are also known as interleukin-29 (IL-29), IL-28A, and IL-

Interferon Lambda: Modulating Immunity in Infectious Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Interferon lambdas (IFN-λs; IFNL1-4) modulate immunity in the context of infections and autoimmune diseases, through a network of induced genes. IFN-λs act by binding to the heterodimeric IFN-λ receptor (IFNLR), activating a STAT phosphorylation-dependent signaling cascade.

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

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.

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 ...

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

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.
