    Age-dependent susceptibility to reovirus encephalitis in mice is influenced by maturation of the type-I interferon response

    Infants and young children are particularly susceptible to viral encephalitis; however, the mechanisms are unknown. We determined the age-dependent contribution of innate and adaptive immune functions to reovi...

    Antiviral immunity via RIG-I-mediated recognition of RNA bearing 5′-diphosphates

    The innate immune receptor RIG-I is shown to sense 5′-diphosphate RNAs as found in some viral genomes in addition to its well characterized activation by RNAs bearing 5′-triphosphate moieties.
