Title: Fast type I interferon response protects astrocytes from flavivirus infection and virus-induced cytopathic effects
  • Document date: 2016_10_24
  • ID: 09tcnsxv_4
    Snippet: We found that astrocytes respond very quickly after viral infection by upregulation of type I IFNs. This upregulation restricts virus replication and spread in primary cultures and contributes to cell survival. By RNA sequencing (RNASeq), we could show that uninfected astrocytes exist in an active antiviral state, which enables fast recognition and response to viral infection by upregulating important antiviral ISGs and that this antiviral state .....
