The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of interferon-alpha. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of interferon-alpha production. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of interferon-alpha production. The appearance of type I interferon due to biosynthesis or secretion following a cellular stimulus, resulting in an increase in its intracellular or extracellular levels. Type I interferons include the interferon-alpha, beta, delta, episilon, zeta, kappa, tau, and omega gene families. The appearance of a cytokine due to biosynthesis or secretion following a cellular stimulus, resulting in an increase in its intracellular or extracellular levels. The appearance of interferon-alpha due to biosynthesis or secretion following a cellular stimulus, resulting in an increase in its intracellular or extracellular levels. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of interferon-alpha production.
