متن کاملImmunosuppression by hemorrhagic fever-causing viruses
The outcomes of human virus infections are tightly linked to cellular immune responses, which are initiated early in the course of the infection by the activation of the innate immune pathways. The typical recognition of viral infections by the innate immune system occurs via the cytoplasmic recognition of viral nucleic acids by cellular receptors, such as the RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) RIG-I ...
