In a typical scenario, a virus-infected cell will release interferons causing nearby cells to heighten their anti-viral defenses.
- (interferons) Proteins released by cells in response to viral infection; activate the synthesis and secretion of antiviral proteins.
- (Interferons) Natural proteins produced by normal cells of the body in response to viral infections and other diseases such as cancer. Interferon affects immune responses and boosts resistance to viral infection. ...
- (Interferons) cytokines belonging to a family of antiviral proteins that occur naturally in the body. Gamma interferon is produced by immune system cells, enhances T-cell recognition of antigens, and causes worsening of MS symptoms. ...
