Inhibition of IRF-3 Activation by VP35 Is Critical for the High Level of Virulence of Ebola Virus
17 Jan 2008
Abstract excerpt
Zaire ebolavirus causes a rapidly progressing hemorrhagic disease with high mortality. Identification of the viral virulence factors that contribute to the severity of disease induced by Ebola virus is critical for the design of therapeutics and vaccines against the disease. Given the rapidity of disease progression, virus interaction with the innate immune system early in the course of infection likely plays an...
