Interferon Signaling Process
Any process which promotes expression of the interferon proteins, their subsequent secretion, binding to cognate receptors or intracellular signaling, and promotes antigen presentation by T lymphocytes, interference with viral replication, and activation of NK cells and macrophages. This process is involved in modulating functions of the immune system. (NCI Thesaurus)
