Palmitic acid (PA) and other saturated fatty acids are known to stimulate pro-inflammatory responses in human immune cells via Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). However, the molecular mechanism responsible
The recognition of mycobacterial cell wall components causes macrophages to secrete tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and other cytokines that are essential for the development of a protective inflammat
To explore the innate immune-related pathways activated by DTMUV in DF1 and DEF. DF1 and DEF were infected with DTMUV and harvested at 24 hpi. Total RNA was extracted and subjected to transcriptome an
Abnormal DNA sensing mediated by cGAS-STING is pivotal for host defenses. Activation of cGAS-STING triggered interferon dependent anti-viral functions have been well characterized but this function is
