Chikungunya Virus nsP2 Impairs MDA5/RIG-I-Mediated Induction of NF-κB Promoter Activation: A Potential Target for Virus-Specific Therapeutics
15 Dec 2020
Abstract excerpt
Activated IRF3 or IRF7 and NF-B together induce type I interferon (IFN)- production; secreted IFN- binds to IFN receptors and directly activates the Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK-STAT) signaling pathway to express IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) However, the pathogenesis of CHIKV infection and the mechanism by which the virus evades the innate immune system remain poorly...
