This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"The protein IFNα can reduce growth and promote apoptosis of cancer cells by stimulating genes such as PML, whose deficiency is linked to tumorigenesis, but the contributions of different PML isoforms to the anticancer effects remain unclear. Given that PML-II positively regulates genes that are induced during the type I IFN response, researchers recently investigated whether and how PML-II participates in IFNα-induced cell death using a cervical cancer cell line. In cells with PML-II deletion (siPML-II), death during IFNα stimulation was reduced, and IFNα-induced ISG54 mRNA expression was attenuated. In addition, silencing PML-II decreased the expression of TRAIL and PUMA during IFNα stimulation, indicating that the extrinsic and intrinsic apoptosis pathways were blunted..."

The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.
