Further, the concentration of sCD163 in the supernatants, and the mRNA expression of cytokines such as IFN-β, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α in the CD163-modified cells did not change before and after the viral infection (Figure 2), which is consistent with the results reported by Burkard et al. (2017). The gene discussed is IFNB1; the disease is viral infectious disease.
