Type I Interferon in Human Autoimmunity [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2014 The type I interferon system plays a critical role in host defense in health, and a growing body of literature suggests that type I interferon is a critical mediator of human autoimmune disease. Type I interferons function as a bridge between the innate and adaptive immune systems, and as such play an important role in setting thresholds for response ...

Bunyaviruses and the Type I Interferon System [PDF]
Viruses, 2009 The family Bunyaviridae contains more than 350 viruses that are distributed throughout the world. Most members of the family are transmitted by arthopods, and several cause disease in man, domesticated animals and crop plants. Despite being recognized as

TLR3, TLR4 and TLRs7-9 Induced Interferons Are Not Impaired in Airway and Blood Cells in Well Controlled Asthma [PDF]
, 2013 Defective Rhinovirus induced interferon-β and interferon-λ production has been reported in bronchial epithelial cells from asthmatics but the mechanisms of defective interferon induction in asthma are unknown.

Cloning of human Type I interferon cDNAs
Proceedings of the Japan Academy. Series B, Physical and Biological Sciences, 2023 In the late 1970s, crude interferon samples were found to exhibit anti-tumour activity. This discovery led to the interferon as a “magic drug” for cancer patients.

Rotavirus NSP1 Inhibits Type I and Type III Interferon Induction
Viruses, 2021 Type I interferons (IFNs) are produced by most cells in response to virus infection and stimulate a program of anti-viral gene expression in neighboring cells to suppress virus replication. Type III IFNs have similar properties, however their effects are

Immunological Reviews, 2023 SummaryType I interferon (IFN) is a class of proinflammatory cytokines with a dual role on malignant transformation, tumor progression, and response to therapy. On the one hand, robust, acute, and resolving type I IFN responses have been shown to mediate prominent anticancer effects, reflecting not only their direct cytostatic/cytotoxic activity on (at

Evasion of Type I Interferon by SARS-CoV-2
Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) replication and host immune response determine coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), but studies evaluating viral evasion of immune response are lacking. Here, we use unbiased screening

Type I interferon–related kidney disorders
Kidney International, 2022 Type I interferon (IFN-I) mediates tissue damage in a wide range of kidney disorders, directly affecting the biology and function of several renal cell types including podocytes, mesangial, endothelial, and parietal epithelial cells. Enhanced IFN-I signaling is observed in the context of viral infections, autoimmunity (e.g., systemic lupus ...

Type I Interferons in NeuroHIV [PDF]
Viral Immunology, 2019 Infection with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-1 continues to cause HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders despite combined antiretroviral therapy. Interferons (IFNs) are important for any antiviral immune response, but the lasting production of IFNα causes exhaustive activation leading eventually to progression to AIDS.
