Metabolic deficiencies underlie reduced plasmacytoid dendritic cell IFN-I production following viral infection
7 Feb 2025
Abstract excerpt
Type I Interferons (IFN-I) are central to host protection against viral infections, with plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) being the most significant source, yet pDCs lose their IFN-I production capacity following an initial burst of IFN-I, resulting in susceptibility to secondary infections. The underlying mechanisms of these dynamics are not well understood. Here we find that viral infection reduces the...
