Autophagy in antiviral innate immunity
10 Oct 2012
Abstract excerpt
Several autonomous arms of innate immunity help cells to combat viral infections. One of these is autophagy, a central cytosolic lysosomal-dependent catabolic process constitutively competent to destroy infectious viruses as well as essential viral components that links virus detection to antiviral innate immune signals. Ongoing autophagy can be upregulated upon virus detection by pathogen receptors, including...
