dc.description | Type I interferons (IFN-a and IFN-b) are important for protection against many viral infections,
whereas type II interferon (IFN-g) is essential for host defense against some bacterial and parasitic
pathogens. Study of IFN responses in human leprosy revealed an inverse correlation between IFN-b
and IFN-g gene expression programs. IFN-g and its downstream vitamin D–dependent antimicrobial
genes were preferentially expressed in self-healing tuberculoid lesions and mediated antimicrobial
activity against the pathogen Mycobacterium leprae in vitro. In contrast, IFN-b and its downstream
genes, including interleukin-10 (IL-10), were induced in monocytes by M. leprae in vitro and
preferentially expressed in disseminated and progressive lepromatous lesions. The IFN-g–induced
macrophage vitamin D–dependent antimicrobial peptide response was inhibited by IFN-b and by
IL-10, suggesting that the differential production of IFNs contributes to protection versus pathogenesis
in some human bacterial infections. | |
