interferon and immune responses

This cluster of papers focuses on the innate immune response to viral infection, particularly the role of pattern recognition receptors such as RIG-I-like receptors and the cGAS-STING pathway in detecting viral nucleic acids and activating antiviral signaling. It also explores the mechanisms of interferon signaling, immune sensing of DNA and RNA viruses, and the regulation of antiviral responses.
