Effects of Nonstructural Proteins NS1 and NS2 of Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus on Interferon Regulatory Factor 3, NF-κB, and Proinflammatory Cytokines
12 Apr 2005
Abstract excerpt
Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) is the leading cause of serious pediatric acute respiratory tract infections, and a better understanding is needed of the host response to HRSV and its attenuated vaccine derivatives. It has been shown previously that HRSV nonstructural proteins 1 and 2 (NS1 and NS2) inhibit the induction of alpha/beta interferon (IFN-alpha/beta) in A549 cells and human macrophages. Two...
