AIM2-Like Receptors Positively and Negatively Regulate the Interferon Response Induced by Cytosolic DNA

ABSTRACT Cytosolic DNAs derived from retrotransposons serve as pathogen-associated molecular patterns for pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that stimulate the induction of interferons (IFNs) and other cytokines, leading to autoimmune disease. Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase is one PRR that senses retrotr...
