Kanda T, Wu S, Sasaki R, Nakamura M, Haga Y, Jiang X, Nakamoto S, Yokosuka O.
PMID: 28943621
Diseases. 2015 Sep 17;3(3):213-220. doi: 10.3390/diseases3030213.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, a cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), remains a serious global health concern. HCC development and human hepatocarcinogenesis are associated with hepatic inflammation caused by host interferons and cytokines. This article focused on the association...

Interferons and HIV Infection: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

Pathogens & immunity

Utay NS, Douek DC.
PMID: 27500281
Pathog Immun. 2016;1(1):107-116. doi: 10.20411/pai.v1i1.125.

Whether type I interferons (IFNs) hinder or facilitate HIV disease progression is controversial. Type I IFNs induce the production of restriction factors that protect against mucosal HIV/SIV acquisition and limit virus replication once systemic infection is established. However, type...

Proinflammatory response induced by Newcastle disease virus in tumor and normal cells.

Oncolytic virotherapy

Ginting TE, Suryatenggara J, Christian S, Mathew G.

PURPOSE: To investigate the specific role of immune responses induced by lentogenic Newcastle disease virus (NDV) for its antitumor effect.MATERIALS AND METHODS: NDV LaSota strain was used to infect the following human cells: non-small cell lung carcinoma (A549), glioblastoma...

Deciphering the role of DC subsets in MCMV infection to better understand immune protection against viral infections.

Frontiers in microbiology

Alexandre YO, Cocita CD, Ghilas S, Dalod M.
PMID: 25120535
Front Microbiol. 2014 Jul 29;5:378. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2014.00378. eCollection 2014.

Infection of mice with murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) recapitulates many physiopathological characteristics of human CMV infection and enables studying the interactions between a virus and its natural host. Dendritic cells (DC) are mononuclear phagocytes linking innate and adaptive immunity which...

Type I Interferons as Regulators of Lung Inflammation.

Frontiers in immunology

Makris S, Paulsen M, Johansson C.
PMID: 28344581
Front Immunol. 2017 Mar 10;8:259. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2017.00259. eCollection 2017.

Immune responses to lung infections must be tightly regulated in order to permit pathogen eradication while maintaining organ function. Exuberant or dysregulated inflammation can impair gas exchange and underlies many instances of lung disease. An important driver of inflammation...

Injectable therapy for Peyronie's disease.

Translational andrology and urology

Chong W, Tan RB.
PMID: 27298778
Transl Androl Urol. 2016 Jun;5(3):310-7. doi: 10.21037/tau.2016.03.15.

Peyronie's disease is a disfiguring and psychologically devastating disease, which continues to pose a significant clinical conundrum to the attending doctor. Many forms of therapy have been trialled but results have been inconsistent at best. Non-surgical therapy revolves around...

Investigation by the Method of INNO-LiPA of Primary Resistance to Lamivudine in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B Who Have Not Used Antiviral Therapy.

The West Indian medical journal

Özgüler M, Akbulut A, Demirdağ K, Özden M.
PMID: 26901602
West Indian Med J. 2015 Apr 30;65(1):111-115. doi: 10.7727/wimj.2014.291.

AIM: Two billion people around the world are exposed to the hepatitis B virus (HBV) and about 350 million are infected with chronic HBV. The infection can be acquired early (neonatal) and becomes chronic in 90%; this rate reduces...

Consensus on Pegylated Interferon Alpha in Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis B.

Journal of clinical and translational hepatology

Zhang W, Zhang D, Dou X, Xie Q, Jiang J, Chen X, Ren H.
PMID: 29577026
J Clin Transl Hepatol. 2018 Mar 28;6(1):1-10. doi: 10.14218/JCTH.2017.00073. Epub 2018 Mar 17.

Practical recommendations for the use of therapeutic drug monitoring of biopharmaceuticals in inflammatory diseases.

Clinical pharmacology : advances and applications

Dreesen E, Bossuyt P, Mulleman D, Gils A, Pascual-Salcedo D.
PMID: 29042821
Clin Pharmacol. 2017 Oct 03;9:101-111. doi: 10.2147/CPAA.S138414. eCollection 2017.

Biopharmaceuticals directed against tumor necrosis factor-alpha, integrins, interleukins, interferons and their receptors have become key agents for the management of inflammatory diseases in the fields of gastroenterology, rheumatology, dermatology and neurology. However, response to these treatments is far from...

Cell Polarization and Epigenetic Status Shape the Heterogeneous Response to Type III Interferons in Intestinal Epithelial Cells.

Frontiers in immunology

Bhushal S, Wolfsmüller M, Selvakumar TA, Kemper L, Wirth D, Hornef MW, Hauser H, Köster M.
PMID: 28659914
Front Immunol. 2017 Jun 12;8:671. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2017.00671. eCollection 2017.

Type I and type III interferons (IFNs) are crucial components of the first-line antiviral host response. While specific receptors for both IFN types exist, intracellular signaling shares the same Jak-STAT pathway. Due to its receptor expression, IFN-λ responsiveness is...

Tumor cell death by pattern-sensing of exogenous RNA: Tumor cell TLR3 directly induces necroptosis by poly(I:C) in vivo, independent of immune effector-mediated tumor shrinkage.

Oncoimmunology

Takaki H, Shime H, Matsumoto M, Seya T.
PMID: 29123946
Oncoimmunology. 2015 Dec 08;6(10):e1078968. doi: 10.1080/2162402X.2015.1078968. eCollection 2017.

Poly(I:C) acts on dendritic cells to induce potent antitumor effects through the production of cytokines/interferons, activation of natural killer cells and proliferation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes. In some tumor or myeloid lineages, poly(I:C) seemed to induce necroptosis in concert...

Canonical and Non-Canonical Aspects of JAK-STAT Signaling: Lessons from Interferons for Cytokine Responses.

Frontiers in immunology
