  • Publication number: 20030175897
    Abstract: Interferons represent an important class of biopharmaceutical products, which have a proven track record in the treatment of a variety of medical conditions, including the treatment of certain autoimmune diseases, the treatment of particular cancers, and the enhancement of the immune response against infectious agents. To date, five types of interferons have been found in humans: interferon-&agr;, interferon-&bgr;, interferon-&ggr;, interferon-&ohgr;, and interferon-&egr;. The present invention provides a new form of human interferon, “Zinf2,” which has applications in diagnosis and therapy.
