Title: The role of viral nucleic acid recognition in dendritic cells for innate and adaptive antiviral immunity Cord-id: ym0jsir5 Document date: 2008_1_18
ID: ym0jsir5
Snippet: Dendritic cells which are located at the interface of innate and adaptive immunity are targets for infection by many different DNA and RNA viruses. Dendritic cell subpopulations express specific nucleic acid recognition receptors belonging to the Toll-like receptor family (TLR3, 7, 8, 9) and the cytosolic RNA helicase family (RIG-I, MDA5, LGP2). Activation of dendritic cells by viral DNA and RNA via these receptors is essential for triggering the innate antiviral immune response and shaping the
Document: Dendritic cells which are located at the interface of innate and adaptive immunity are targets for infection by many different DNA and RNA viruses. Dendritic cell subpopulations express specific nucleic acid recognition receptors belonging to the Toll-like receptor family (TLR3, 7, 8, 9) and the cytosolic RNA helicase family (RIG-I, MDA5, LGP2). Activation of dendritic cells by viral DNA and RNA via these receptors is essential for triggering the innate antiviral immune response and shaping the ensuing adaptive antiviral immunity. This review will summarize our current knowledge of viral nucleic acid recognition and signaling by Toll-like receptors and RNA helicases focusing on recent evidence for their specific functions in antiviral defense in vivo.
