Mackensen F et al. – Since their discovery in the 1950s interferons have been the scope of investigation in many diseases as therapeutic as well as pathogenetic factors. The authors know they have immune stimulatory and immune regulatory effects. This apparently counter–intuitive mechanism can be summarized as immunomodulatory action and seems to be very effective in a number of ocular inflammatory diseases. The authors review the current knowledge of interferons in immunity and autoimmunity and show their use in clinical ophthalmologic practice.
