Type I interferons in infectious disease [PDF]
Nature Reviews Immunology, 2015 Type I interferons (IFNs) have diverse effects on innate and adaptive immune cells during infection with viruses, bacteria, parasites and fungi, directly and/or indirectly through the induction of other mediators. Type I IFNs are important for host defence against viruses.

Type I interferon in rheumatic diseases [PDF]
Nature Reviews Rheumatology, 2018 The type I interferon pathway has been implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of rheumatic diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjögren syndrome, myositis, systemic sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis. In normal immune responses, type I interferons have a critical role in the defence against viruses, yet in many rheumatic diseases ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Signal Transduction by Type I Interferons [PDF]
BioTechniques, 2002 The two classes of interferons, type I (IFNalpha, IFNbeta, IFNomega, and IFNtau) and type II (IFNgamma) are pleiotropic cytokines that exhibit antiviral, antiproliferative, and immunomodulatory effects on their target cells. This article summarizes the advances made in elucidating the molecular events that mediate the biological responses to type I ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Human interferon-ω: an underappreciated type I interferon
Frontiers in ImmunologyInterferon-ω (IFN-ω) is a member of the human type I interferon family that has historically been overshadowed by IFN-α and IFN-β. Recent human “natural perturbations”, most notably selective neutralization of IFN-ω by autoantibodies in life-threatening ...

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer
Molecular 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 ...

ULK1 in type I interferon response
Oncotarget, 2015 Type I interferon (IFN) signaling leads to transcription and translation of key IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), whose protein products exhibit anti-tumorigenic, anti-viral, and immunomodulatory functions [1–3]. These responses are triggered by the interaction of type I IFNs (IFNα, IFNβ, IFNω) with a unique cell surface receptor composed by two subunits ...

LncRNAs in the Type I Interferon Antiviral Response [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 The proper functioning of the immune system requires a robust control over a delicate equilibrium between an ineffective response and immune overactivation. Poor responses to viral insults may lead to chronic or overwhelming infection, whereas unrestrained activation can cause autoimmune diseases and cancer.
