Interferon-alpha
(alpha-Interferon; Interferon alfa; Interferon, Leukocyte; Interferon, Lymphoblast)
One of the type I interferons (interferon type i) produced by peripheral blood leukocytes or lymphoblastoid cells when exposed to live or inactivated virus, double-stranded rna, or bacterial products. It is the major interferon produced by virus-induced leukocyte cultures and, in addition to its pronounced antiviral activity, it causes activation of NK cells.
