Hantavirus Regulation of Type I Interferon Responses

open access: yesAdvances in Virology, 2012
Hantaviruses primarily infect human endothelial cells (ECs) and cause two highly lethal human diseases. Early addition of Type I interferon (IFN) to ECs blocks hantavirus replication and thus for hantaviruses to be pathogenic they need to prevent early ...

Post-Transcriptional Control of Type I Interferon Induction by Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus in Its Natural Host Cells

open access: yesViruses, 2012
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is not only a poor inducer of type I interferon but also inhibits the efficient induction of type I interferon by porcine transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) and synthetic dsRNA molecules,

The anti-interferon activity of conserved viral dUTPase ORF54 is essential for an effective MHV-68 infection. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2011
Gammaherpesviruses such as KSHV and EBV establish lifelong persistent infections through latency in lymphocytes. These viruses have evolved several strategies to counteract the various components of the innate and adaptive immune systems. We conducted an

Forging a potent vaccine adjuvant: CpG ODN/cationic peptide nanorings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Cataloged from PDF version of article.Type I interferon inducers may potentially be engineered to function as antiviral and anticancer agents, or alternatively, vaccine adjuvants, all of which may have clinical applications.

Type I interferon in rheumatic diseases [PDF]

open access: yesNature 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 ...

Type I/II interferon in HIV-1-infected patients: expression in gut mucosa and in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and its modification upon probiotic supplementation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Expression of type I and II interferon (IFN) was evaluated in gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of HIV-1-positive patients on long-term, suppressive, antiretroviral therapy before and after probiotic ...

Effects of type I interferons in malaria [PDF]

open access: yesImmunology, 2018
SummaryType I interferons (IFNs) are a family of cytokines with a wide range of biological activities including anti‐viral and immune‐regulatory functions. Here, we focus on the protozoan parasitic disease malaria, and examine the effects of type I IFN‐signalling during Plasmodium infection of humans and experimental mice.

Tick-Borne Flaviviruses and the Type I Interferon Response

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Flaviviruses are globally distributed pathogens causing millions of human infections every year. Flaviviruses are arthropod-borne viruses and are mainly transmitted by either ticks or mosquitoes.

An unbiased genetic screen reveals the polygenic nature of the influenza virus anti-interferon response. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Influenza A viruses counteract the cellular innate immune response at several steps, including blocking RIG I-dependent activation of interferon (IFN) transcription, interferon (IFN)-dependent upregulation of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), and the activity

Regulation of type I interferon responses [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Immunology, 2013
Type I interferons (IFNs) activate intracellular antimicrobial programmes and influence the development of innate and adaptive immune responses. Canonical type I IFN signalling activates the Janus kinase (JAK)-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway, leading to transcription of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs).
