Abstract excerpt
The regulation of cell growth is one of the most important effects of type I interferons (IFNs). This response may involve a cytostatic effect or the induction of apoptosis depending on the cell context. Often the growth-inhibitory response of type I IFNs is studied in tumor cell lines carrying mutations of tumor suppressor genes, and therefore, the growth-inhibitory effect can be influenced by inactivation of...
