Cellular Signaling and Innate Immune Responses to RNA Virus Infections

A comprehensive survey of the most recent discoveries in this field.

• Provides a platform of knowledge that will lead to the development of more effective methods for controlling the spread of RNA viruses or modifying their disease course.
• Synthesizes recent findings in this fast-moving field while also reviewing accepted knowledge.
• Focuses on the antiviral signaling pathways in the host, including specific pattern recognition receptors and how these cellular alarms signal the innate immune response.
• Examines the ways in which specific major RNA virus families interact with, activate, and elude these signaling pathways and responses.
