IFN-alpha 5 (IFNA5; IFN-α5), belongs to the alpha/beta interferon (IFN) family, is produced by the macrophages with antiviral activities. Interferon (IFN) is originally identified as a substance ‘interfering’ with viral replication in vitro. IFN-α/β and related molecules are classified as type I IFNs, as for the other two types of type II IFN (IFN-γ) and type III IFNs (IFN-λ), respectively^[1]. Interferon stimulates the production of two enzymes: a protein kinase and an oligoadenylate synthetase. Interferon alpha (IFNa) shows significant biological activity in various cancers, paticularly haematological malignancies such as hairy cell leukaemia and chronic myelogenous leukaemia^[2].
IFN-alpha 5 involves in innate immunity, and is one of the genes associated with acute viral bronchiolitis (AVB) caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), determining susceptibility to RSV bronchiolitis^[3]^[4]. The excessively expressed interferon-α (IFN-α) might contribute to the uncontrolled inflammatory responses, causing pathological damage during influenza virus infection. However IFN-alpha 5 is dominantly expressed in respiratory epithelial cells from the patients infected with less pathogenic infectious bronchitis virus (IBV)^[5].
