The Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 maintains high sensitivity to interferons in human lung cells

2021-11-17

Abstract excerpt

Interferons are a major part of the anti-viral innate defense system. Successful pathogens, including the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), need to overcome these defenses to establish an infection. Early induction of interferons (IFNs) protects against severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In line with this, SARS-CoV-2 is inhibited by IFNs in vitro , and IFN-based therapies agai...
