MeSH definition : Specific molecular sites or structures on or in cells with which interferons react
or to which they bind in order to modify the function of the cells. Interferons exert
their pleiotropic effects through two different receptors. alpha- and beta-interferon
crossreact with common receptors, while gamma-interferon initiates its biological
effects through its own specific receptor system.;
