Tissue and time specific expression pattern of interferon regulated genes in the chicken
28 Mar 2017
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Type I interferons are major players against viral infections and mediate their function by the induction of Interferon regulated genes (IRGs). Recently, it became obvious that these cytokines have a multitude of additional functions.
