The type I interferon response in COVID-19: implications for treatment

open access: yesNature reviews. Immunology, 2020
Despite early reports to the contrary, there is increasing evidence that patients with severe COVID-19 have a robust type I interferon response, which contrasts with the delayed, possibly suppressed, interferon response seen early in infection.

Type I Interferons in Host Defense [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2006
Type I interferons (IFNs) are a family of cytokines specialized to coordinate immunity to viruses and other intracellular infections. In the past several years, many of the receptors and signaling pathways that link pathogen detection to induction of type I IFNs have been identified and characterized.

Mouse model of SARS-CoV-2 reveals inflammatory role of type I interferon signaling

open access: yesSocial Science Research Network, 2020
Israelow et al. show that AAV-mediated expression of human ACE2 allows for SARS-CoV-2 infection and disease investigation in mice. This pathology is in part driven by type I interferon signaling, which recruits inflammatory immune cells without aborting ...

Type I interferons in infectious disease [PDF]

open access: yesNature 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.

Immune suppressive activity of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in cancer requires inactivation of the type I interferon pathway

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are pathologically activated neutrophils and monocytes with potent immune suppressive activity. These cells play an important role in accelerating tumor progression and undermining the efficacy of anti-cancer ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

A diverse array of gene products are effectors of the type I interferon antiviral response

open access: yesNature, 2011
The type I interferon response protects cells against invading viral pathogens. The cellular factors that mediate this defence are the products of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs).

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Critical Determinants of Cytokine Storm and Type I Interferon Response in COVID-19 Pathogenesis

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 2020
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a rapidly evolving pandemic worldwide with at least 68 million COVID-19-positive cases and a mortality rate of about 2.2%, as of 10 December 2020. In
