Interferon-γ (IFNγ) is important in innate and adaptive immunity and its overproduction is also implicated in hyperinflammation. Here, De Benedetti and colleagues discuss the evidence for a pathogenetic role of IFNγ in hyperinflammatory diseases, the search for IFNγ biomarkers, and the results of clinical trials of IFNγ-neutralizing therapeutics.
