The enteric bacterial microbiota stimulates a highly localized interferon-lambda signal within the intestinal epithelium that protects against murine rotavirus infection.
Neutrophil-dependent innate immune responses to the human pathogen, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, are modulated by an interplay between interleukin-21 and type 1 interferons.

The Mediator-associated kinases CDK8 and CDK19 help drive inflammatory responses to interferon, and it is discovered that kinase-dependent transcriptional responses manifest in part through splicing changes and lipid metabolites.
Host restriction factors that block cross-species transmission also play a role in limiting the replication of highly-adapted HIV-1 in IFN-stimulated cells.

Type I interferon and interferon-γ signaling redundantly protects mice from the tick-borne pathogen Rickettsia parkeri in the skin, and interferon receptor-deficient mice are a tractable model for investigating rickettsiosis.
