NF-κB RelA Subunit Is Crucial for Early IFN-β Expression and Resistance to RNA Virus Replication

Abstract excerpt

RNA virus infection results in expression of type 1 IFNs, especially IFN-alpha/beta, which play a crucial role in host antivirus responses. Type 1 IFNs are induced in a cell type-specific manner through TLR and RIG-I-like receptor pathways, both of which activate IFN regulatory factors (IRFs) and NF-kappaB transcription factors. Although NF-kappaB activation and association with the IFN-beta promoter after RNA...
