Abstract

Specific protection mechanisms are required to safeguard stem cell integrity. In a recent issue of Cell, Wu et al. (2018) show that stem cells are equipped with high intrinsic expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) but remain refractory to acute interferon signaling. This protects stem cells from viral infection.

摘要

需要特定的保护机制来维护干细胞的完整性。在最近一期的《细胞》杂志上，Wu 等人（2018 年）表明，干细胞具有高表达干扰素刺激基因（ISGs）的内在特性，但对急性干扰素信号仍具有抗性。这可以保护干细胞免受病毒感染。
