Respective roles of TLR, RIG-I and NLRP3 in influenza virus infection and immunity: impact on vaccine design

Abstract excerpt

Influenza A virus is the etiological agent of a highly contagious acute respiratory disease that causes epidemics and considerable mortality annually. It has become increasingly evident that influenza viral infection is recognized by at least three classes of pattern-recognition receptors, including TLR-7, the retinoic acid inducible gene-I and nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich-repeat-containing protein...
