Background | Interferon-beta (IFN-β1a), acting via STAT1 and STAT2, is known to upregulate and downregulate a wide variety of genes, most of which are involved in the antiviral immune response. It is a member of TypeⅠ IFNs, which include IFN-α, -β, τ, and-ω. IFN-β plays an important role in inducing non-specific resistance against a broad range of viral infections. It also affects cell proliferation and modulates immune responses |
Alternative | IFNB1, Type I Interferon |
