Mechanisms of viral inhibition by interferons

Pharmacology & Therapeutics
S LandolfoM Gariglio

Abstract

Interferons (IFNs) are a family of related proteins grouped in four species (alpha, beta, gamma and omega) according to their cellular origin, inducing agents and antigenic and functional properties. Their binding to specific receptors leads to the activation of signal transduction pathways that stimulate a defined set of genes, whose products are eventually responsible for the IFN antiviral effects. Their action against viruses is a complex phenomenon. It has been reported that IFNs restrict virus growth at the levels of penetration, uncoating, synthesis of mRNA, protein synthesis and assembly. This review will attempt to evaluate evidence of the involvement of the IFN-inducible proteins in the expression of the antiviral state against RNA or DNA viruses.
