30 Apr 2010
Abstract excerpt
Type III interferons (IFN) (IFN-lambda1, -lambda2, -lambda3/interleukin [IL]-29, -28A, -28B) are cytokines with type I IFN-like antiviral activities. Most cells have expressed both type I and III IFN following Toll-like receptor (TLR) stimulation or viral infection, whereas the ability of cells to respond to IFN-lambda was restricted to a specific subset of cells. It was reported that signal transduction pathway...
