Abstract excerpt
Type I interferonopathies are a relatively new class of inherited autoimmune disorders associated with an inborn elevated interferon response. Activation of cytosolic receptors which recognize viral double stranded RNA including the RIG-I (retinoic acid-inducible gene I) like receptors RIG-I and MDA5 (melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5) has been shown to induce the transcription of type I interferon...
