Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is one of the most devastating diseases affecting livestock. Since vaccines fail to provide protection until seven days post-vaccination, the application of anti-viral molecules is imperative for suppressing the spread of FMDV prior to development of an adaptive immune response. Interferons (IFNs) are effective for the host to fight FMDV infections; however, a novel type I IFNs, interferon delta (IFN-δ), has not been investigated for their antiviral effects against this virus. Thus, this study investigated FMDV infection, upon pre- and post-treatment with PoIFN-δ8. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to quantify the expression levels of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), i...
