Shared and Unique Features of Human Interferon-Beta and Interferon-Alpha Subtypes
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Type I interferons (IFN-I) were first discovered as an antiviral factor by Isaacs and Lindenmann in 1957, but they are now known to also modulate innate and adaptive immunity and suppress proliferation of cancer cells.

Type I interferon induces cancer stem cells-mediated chemotherapy resistance
OncoImmunology, 2022 In a recent study in Nature Immunology, Musella et al. demonstrate that suboptimal type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling in tumors undergoing immunogenic cell death (ICD) facilitates the accumulation of cancer stem cells (CSCs) by triggering the epigenetic
