Abstract excerpt
Type I interferons (IFNs) are induced during most viral infections and are considered to be the primary and universal means of innate viral control. However, several other innate mechanisms, including autophagy, have recently been shown to play an important role in antiviral defense. In our recent study, we utilized a herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infection model to investigate the relationship between cell type...
