Gamma Radiation Induces an Interferon-Independent Antiviral Activity in Human Macrophages

2026-02-07

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Gamma rays play a central role in biomedical applications, yet their implication on innate antiviral immunity remains insufficiently understood. Here we show that low-dose gamma irradiation (1.5–2 Gy) induces an antiviral state in human macrophage-like cells infected with influenza A virus (IAV). Irradiated macrophages exhibited increased transcription of type I interferon (IFN-I) gen...
