Identification of an Interferon Signaling Pathway Linking Membrane Cholesterol Accessibility to Host Defense Against Pathogens
Interferon-γ (IFN-γ) is a multipotent cytokine that is critical to the host innate immune defense against bacterial infection, and functions through transcriptional induction of hundreds of IFN-γ stimulated genes (γ-ISGs). However, the antibacterial roles of many γ-ISGs remain poorly defined. Here, …
