Application
Interferon alpha has been used to evaluate its effect on VSV (vesicular stomatitis virus) infection in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) cell lines and study the relationship between type I IFNsignaling, resistance to VSV infection, and the JAK/STAT (Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription) signaling pathways in PDA cell lines. It has also been used to study the inhibitory effect of Morbillivirus V Proteins on Interferon Signaling Pathways.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Recombinant, human αA-interferon expressed in E. coli have antiviral, antiproliferative, antineoplastic, and immunomodulating properties. Recombinant interferon αA (IFN-αA) is used as the first line of treatment for hepatitis C. It also displays a great therapeutic potential with chronic viral hepatitis, polycythemia, leukemia, and various other malignancies. It enhances natural killer cell activity, suppresses bone marrow function, and induces apoptotic cell death in non-melanoma skin cancer.

General description
Research area: Immunoand cks
Interferons are cytokines secreted by mammalian cells. They are broadly divided into type I– interferon alpha (IFN-α) and interferon beta (IFN-β), type II – interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), and type III – interferon lambda (IFN-λ) based on their structure, function, and receptor specificity. Recombinant αA interferon is a hydrophobic protein belonging to the IFN-α family of proteins.

One unit of interferon per ml of medium will cause a 50% inhibition of VSV-induced cytopathic effect on bovine MDBK cells. Units are determined with respect to the NIH international reference standard for human αA-IFN. Dilute in aqueous buffer containing at least 0.1% BSA or HSA.
Physical form
In PBS containing 0.1% BSA.
Preparation Note
Dilute only in buffers containing protein such as 0.1% BSA.
Following initial thaw, aliquot and freeze (-70°C).
