Context:

  • Interferons (IFNs) have been a subject of scientific inquiry for over four decades.
  • Understanding the dynamic nature and physiological significance of IFNs is crucial in immunology.
  • Previous research has laid the groundwork for current investigations into IFN functions.

Purpose:

  • To provide an updated perspective on the definition and understanding of interferons.
  • To elucidate the evolving comprehension of the physiological roles of interferons within an organism.
  • To present the latest classification of interferons and detailed characterization of human interferons.

Summary:

  • This review synthesizes over 40 years of research on interferons (IFNs).
  • It highlights the historical shifts in defining IFNs and understanding their biological functions.
