SARS-CoV-2-associated ssRNAs activate inflammation and immunity via TLR7/8
2021-04-15
Abstract excerpt
The inflammatory and IFN pathways of innate immunity play a key role in both resistance and pathogenesis of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Innate sensors and SARS-CoV-2-Associated Molecular Patterns (SAMPs) remain to be completely defined. Here we identify single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) fragments from SARS-CoV-2 genome as direct activators of endosomal TLR7/8 and MyD88 pathway. The same sequences induced human...
