MAVS is Important for Antiviral Defense Against Influenza A Virus in a Human Respiratory Epithelium Model
2025-12-11
Abstract excerpt
The respiratory epithelium is an important immunological barrier and the first line of defense against influenza A virus. In mice and in various cellular systems, induction of type I interferons (IFNα/β) during IAV infections is known to depend on cytosolic RNA sensors RIG-I and MDA5 and on the adaptor molecule MAVS. Until now, it has not been possible to directly test the importance of MAVS for induction of IFNs...
