The EBV-Encoded dUTPase Activates NF-κB through the TLR2 and MyD88-Dependent Signaling Pathway
1 Jan 2009
Abstract excerpt
The innate immune response plays a key role as the primary host defense against invading pathogens including viruses. We have previously shown that treatment of human monocyte-derived macrophages with EBV-encoded dUTPase induces the expression of proinflammatory cytokines through the activation of NF-kappaB. However, the receptor responsible for EBV-encoded dUTPase-mediated biological effects is not known. In...
