Interleukin-27-polarized HIV-resistant M2 macrophages are a novel subtype of macrophages that express distinct antiviral gene profiles in individual cells: implication for the antiviral effect via different mechanisms in the individual cell-dependent manner
IntroductionInterleukin (IL)-27 is an anti-viral cytokine. IL-27-treated monocyte-derived macrophages (27-Mac) suppressed HIV replication. Macrophages are generally divided into two subtypes, M1 and M2 macrophages. M2 macrophages can be polarized into …
