Activation of the Type I Interferon Pathway Is Enhanced in Response to Human Neuronal Differentiation
7 Mar 2013
Abstract excerpt
Despite the crucial role of innate immunity in preventing or controlling pathogen-induced damage in most, if not all, cell types, very little is known about the activity of this essential defense system in central nervous system neurons, especially in humans.
