CXCL16 and neuroblastoma: All IFN-α-treated human CNS cell lines, comprising human neuroblastoma cells (SK-N-SH), human microglia-like cells (HMC3), and human astrocyte-like cells (SVGp12), showed a downregulation of CXCL16 gene expression upon RABV Tha strain infection in contrast to the IFN-α-treated mock (Figure 4D).
