The induction of an interferon-mediated response is the first line defense against pathogens such as viruses. Yet, dynamics and extent interferon alpha (IFNα)-induced antiviral genes vary remarkably comprise three expression clusters: early, intermediate late. By mathematical modeling based on time-resolved quantitative data, we identified mRNA stability well a negative regulatory loop key mechanisms endogenously controlling IFNα-induced in hepatocytes. Guided by model, uncovered that this...

Cellular signaling cascades adapt to changing environments through multiple feedback mechanisms. Pre-activation of the IFNα signal-transduction pathway can cause a desensitized state in which system is not responding further treatment constitutes serious therapeutic problem. Even though involvement USP18 as one key negative regulators has been reported, underlying mechanisms well role components remain unresolved.
