The microglia receptor protein TREM2 is essential for protective innate immune responses against herpesvirus infection in the brain
2023-03-16
Abstract excerpt
Immunological control of viral infection in the brain is essential for immediate protection, but also for long-term maintenance of brain integrity. As the primary resident immune cell of the brain, microglia protect against viral infections through key macrophage functions, including release of the antiviral type I interferons (IFN-I) and clearance of infected cells. Microglia express the cytosolic DNA sensor cycl...
