Objectives: SARS-CoV-2 infection causes an innate immune response that is activated through pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs), including Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs). Endosomal TLR7/8 detects viral ssRNA, while TLR3 also recognizes dsRNA formed during viral replication. Both RIG-I and MDA5 recognize SARS-CoV-2 RNA in the cytoplasm of infected...
