General description
IFN β (interferon β) is from the type 1 interferon family of cytokines.
Interferon β (IFN-β) possesses a signal peptide region. It has comparatively more hydrophobic residues and displays 30% homology with IFN-α.
The gene encoding interferon β (Infb1) is localized on mouse chromosome 4.
Application
Interferon β from mouse has been used:
- in the stimulation of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs)
- as a cytokine to stimulate differentiation of podocytes
- to stimulate splenocytes
Interferon ß from mouse has been used:
- to induce the activation of cholesterol 25-hydroxylase, by in vitro stimulation of bone marrow-derived macrophages, dendritic cells and CD11c+ lung macrophages
- to stimulate splenocytes, in order to study the secretion and regulation of IFN-γ
- to intranasally pre-treat neonatal mice, to study its effects on the protective actions of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG)
- as a standard to treat MEF-Mx2-luc-BKO reporter cell line for IFN-β measurement, in response to human adenovirus-5 (HAdV-C5)
Biochem/physiol Actions
In presence of virus infection, IFN β (interferon β) is upregulated and plays a crucial role in innate antiviral response. It is also important for anti-inflammatory effects.
Interferon β (IFN-β) suppresses a variety of proinflammatory cytokines in lymphocytes including the interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). It also favors the synthesis of antagonists associated with interleukin IL-10 and IL-1 receptor. IFN-β downregulates interferon γ production but enhances transforming growth factor β1 expression. It has therapeutic potential in treating rheumatoid arthritis and relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS).
Interferon β has a role in the activation of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) gene expression. It acts as a messenger during bacterial infections.
Cytokine with anti-viral, anti-proliferative, immunoregulatory, and proinflammatory activities.
Physical form
Solution in 20 mM HEPES, pH 6.0, 0.5 M NaCl, 6% glycerol, and 0.1% bovine serum albumin.
Analysis Note
The biological activity is determined in the cytopathic effect inhibition assay using mouse L929 cells with encephalomyocarditis virus. The cytopathic effect of 50% is produced with approximately 1 unit/ml interferon. The units are determined with respect to NIH international standard reference for mouse interferon β.

Neurodegenerative diseases have been linked to inflammation, but whether altered immunomodulation plays a causative role in neurodegeneration is not clear. We show that lack of cytokine interferon-β (IFN-β) signaling causes spontaneous neurodegeneration in the absence of neurodegenerative disease-causing mutant proteins.

Rapid upregulation of interferon beta (IFN-β) expression following virus infection is essential to set up an efficient innate antiviral response. Biological roles related to the antiviral and immune response have also been associated with the constitutive production of IFN-β in

HLA class I and II molecules play a central role in regulating host immune responses against microbial infections because they present foreign antigens to CD8+ and CD4+ T lymphocytes, respectively. Many cytokines, especially interferons (IFN), are known to upregulate human

Type I interferons (IFN-I), such as IFN-α and IFN-β are important messengers in the host response against bacterial infections. Knowledge about the role of IFN-I in infections by nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) is limited. Here we show that macrophages infected with
