Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) is a crucial cytokine in the immune system, serving as a bridge between innate and adaptive immunity, and plays a complex and pivotal role in combating infections, suppressing tumors, and the development of autoimmune diseases.

Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), also known as type II interferon, is a pleiotropic cytokine crucial for cellular immune responses. Unlike type I interferons, IFN-γ is primarily produced by activated T lymphocytes (including CD4⁺ Th1 cells and CD8⁺ cytotoxic T cells), natural killer (NK) cells, and NKT cells.
