Regional astrocyte IFN signaling restricts pathogenesis during neurotropic viral infection.
Type I IFNs promote cellular responses to viruses, and IFN receptor (IFNAR) signaling regulates the responses of endothelial cells of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) during neurotropic viral infection. However, the role of astrocytes in innate immune responses of the BBB during viral infection of the CNS remains to be fully elucidated. Here, we have demonstrated that type I IFNAR signaling in ast...
متن کاملmolecular diagnosis of viral infections
context: detection of causative pathogen is crucial for treatment strategies in most infections. molecular diagnosis as a more sensitive and specific method, has become the best option to investigate certain pathogens, mainly viruses. recent scientific and technological approaches resulted in changing the area of diagnostic microbiology. evidence acquisition: a comprehensive online search of da...
متن کاملSynaptic Plasticity and Neurological Disorders in Neurotropic Viral Infections
Based on the type of cells or tissues they tend to harbor or attack, many of the viruses are characterized. But, in case of neurotropic viruses, it is not possible to classify them based on their tropism because many of them are not primarily neurotropic. While rabies and poliovirus are considered as strictly neurotropic, other neurotropic viruses involve nervous tissue only secondarily. Since ...
متن کاملMolecular Pathogenesis of Virus Infections
Molecular Pathogenesis of Virus Infections describes our current understanding of the pathogenesis of selected virus and prion infections. The innate response is an early barrier to virus spread. In this context, O. Haller et al. describe the antiviral activity of type I interferons and the various virus-encoded countermeasures. R.P. van Rij and R. Andino review the role of RNAi as a therapeuti...
متن کاملBid Regulates the Pathogenesis of Neurotropic Reovirus
Reovirus infection leads to apoptosis in both cultured cells and the murine central nervous system (CNS). NF-kappaB-driven transcription of proapoptotic cellular genes is required for the effector phase of the apoptotic response. Although both extrinsic death-receptor signaling pathways and intrinsic pathways involving mitochondrial injury are implicated in reovirus-induced apoptosis, mechanism...
