Interferon alpha pathway (None)

Target
None
Molecular classification
Cytokine-mediated signaling pathway
01

Overview

The interferon alpha (IFN-α) pathway is a critical component of the innate immune response, primarily activated in response to viral infections. IFN-α is a type I interferon that signals through the type I interferon receptor complex (IFNAR), activating the JAK/STAT pathway and leading to the transcription of Interferon Stimulated Genes (ISGs). This pathway mediates antiviral effects, immune modulation, and increased antigen presentation.
