Interferon-beta (IFN-beta), acting canonically via the modulation of transcription, affects neocortical pyramidal neurons. By use of 2-D differential gel electrophoresis and subsequent mass spectrometry we identified IFN-beta regulated proteins in the central nervous system. These proteins are involved in cytoskeleton assembly, protein transport and nucleotide metabolism and, as such, serve regenerative and protective functions. Electrophysiologically, IFN-beta mediated protein synthesis is essential for part of the excitatory neuronal effects, as revealed under blockade of protein biosynthesis. This study presents novel effects of IFN-beta in the central nervous system and begins to unravel the mechanism behind the known excitability changes in neurons.
