  2. Interferon gamma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interferon_gamma

    Interferon gamma (IFNG or IFN-γ) is a dimerized soluble cytokine that is the only member of the type II class of interferons. [5] The existence of this interferon, which early in its history was known as immune interferon, was described by E. F. Wheelock as a product of human leukocytes stimulated with phytohemagglutinin, and by others as a product of antigen-stimulated lymphocytes. [6]

  4. Interferon alfa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interferon_alfa

    Interferon alfa or HuIFN-alpha-Le, trade name Multiferon, is a pharmaceutical drug composed of natural interferon alpha (IFN-α), obtained from the leukocyte fraction of human blood following induction with Sendai virus. Interferon alfa contains several naturally occurring IFN-α subtypes and is purified by affinity chromatography.

    They include interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-6, IL-12, and IL-18, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interferon gamma (IFNγ), and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and play an important role in mediating the innate immune response. Inflammatory cytokines are predominantly produced by and involved in the upregulation of ...

  7. Interferon type I - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interferon_type_I

    The type-I interferons (IFN) are cytokines which play essential roles in inflammation, immunoregulation, tumor cells recognition, and T-cell responses. In the human genome, a cluster of thirteen functional IFN genes is located at the 9p21.3 cytoband over approximately 400 kb including coding genes for IFNα (IFNA1, IFNA2, IFNA4, IFNA5, IFNA6, IFNA7, IFNA8, IFNA10, IFNA13, IFNA14, IFNA16 ...

  8. Interferon-gamma receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interferon-gamma_receptor

    The human interferon-gamma receptor complex consists the heterodimer of two chains: IFNGR1 and IFNGR2. [2] [3] In unstimulated cells, these subunits are not preassociated with each other but rather associate through their intracellular domains with inactive forms of specific Janus family kinases (Jak1 and Jak2). Jak1 and Jak2 constitutively ...

  9. Interferon alpha-1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interferon_alpha-1

    Interferon alpha-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IFNA1 gene. [3] [4] Leukocyte interferon is produced predominantly by B lymphocytes. Immune interferon (IFN-gamma; MIM 147570) is produced by mitogen- or antigen-stimulated T lymphocytes.[supplied by OMIM] [4]
