Human IFNε: Spaciotemporal expression, hormone regulation and innate immunity in the female reproductive tract

2018-10-16

Abstract excerpt

Interferon epsilon (IFNε) plays an important role in regulating protective immunity in the female reproductive tract in mouse models; but the expression and regulation of this IFNε in the human FRT had not yet been characterised. Here we show that IFNε is selectively and highly expressed in the human FRT, a unique characteristic among the many types of IFN. IFNε has distinct expression patterns in upper compared w...
