Antineoplastic interferons
What are Antineoplastic interferons?
Interferon-Related Signaling Drive Non-Immune-Mediated Resistance to Chemotherapy and Radiation. In addition to effects on the immune system, high levels of ISG expression can also promote cancer cell intrinsic resistance to radiation and chemotherapy.
Interferon alfa-2b injection is used to treat hepatitis B and C, lymphoma (lymph node cancer), malignant melanoma (skin cancer), genital warts, hairy cell leukemia (blood cell cancer), and Kaposi sarcoma (AIDS-related tumor). Interferons are substances produced by cells in the body to help fight infections and tumors.
Interferons (IFNs) are antiviral cytokines that play a key role in the innate immune response to viral infections. In response to viral stimuli, cells produce and release interferons, which then act on neighboring cells to induce the transcription of hundreds of genes.
