Regulation of innate immune responses by autophagy-related proteins

Abstract excerpt

Pattern recognition receptors detect microbial components and induce innate immune responses, the first line of host defense against infectious agents. However, aberrant activation of immune responses often causes massive inflammation, leading to the development of autoimmune diseases. Therefore, both activation and inactivation of innate immune responses must be strictly controlled. Recent studies have shown...
