Influenza A virus inhibits IFN-gamma functions through the Jak/Stat pathway

Pathways:

Jak/Stat pathway

Host Molecules Involved:

interferons (IFN), in innate immunity

Influenza Strain:

A/Aichi/2/68 (H3N2) (Aichi)

Tissues:

Respiratory epithelial cells

Interactions:

Influenza virus inhibits IFN-gamma.

Mechanisms:

Influenza infection suppressed IFN-gamma-caused up-regulation of HLA-DRalpha mRNA, and class II transactivator (CIITA), a mediator of MHC class II expression.
