Abstract

Inflammatory responses during virus infection differentially impact the host. Managing inflammatory responses is essential in controlling viral infection and related diseases. Recently, we identified a cellular anti-inflammatory mechanism, RIKA (Repression of IRF3-mediated inhibition of NF-κB activity), which controls viral inflammation and pathogenesis. The RIKA function of IRF3 may be explored further in other inflammatory diseases beyond viral infection.
