Interferon lambda (IFN-λ) is an antiviral naturally produced in response to viral infections, with activity on cells of epithelial origin and located in the mucosal surfaces. This localized activity results in reduced toxicity compared to type I IFNs, whose receptors are ubiquitously expressed. IFN-λ has been effective in the therapy of respiratory viral infections, playing a crucial role in potentiating adaptive immune responses that initiate at mucosal surfaces. Human IFN-λ has polymorphisms that may cause differences in the interaction with the specific receptor in the human population. Interestingly, bovine IFN-λ3 has an

λ 干扰素 (IFN-λ) 是一种针对病毒感染而自然产生的抗病毒药物,对位于粘膜表面的上皮来源细胞具有活性。与I型干扰素相比,这种局部活性导致毒性降低,I型干扰素的受体普遍表达。IFN-λ 可有效治疗呼吸道病毒感染,在增强粘膜表面启动的适应性免疫反应方面发挥着至关重要的作用。人类 IFN-λ 具有多态性,可能会导致与人群中特定受体的相互作用存在差异。有趣的是,牛 IFN-λ3 具有
