In contrast, IFN-λ1 did not produce growth inhibitory effects in mesothelioma cells, whereas human esophageal carcinoma T.Tn cells, which were positive for both IL-28Rα and IL-10β [17], were sensitive to IFN-λ1 (Figure 2B & Table S1). The gene discussed is IFNL1; the disease is carcinoma of esophagus.
