Cutting Edge: Influenza A Virus Activates TLR3-Dependent Inflammatory and RIG-I-Dependent Antiviral Responses in Human Lung Epithelial Cells
Open accessAbstract
Influenza A virus (IAV) triggers a contagious acute respiratory disease that causes considerable mortality annually. Recently, we established a role for the pattern-recognition TLR3 in the response of lung epithelial cells to IAV-derived dsRNA. However, additional nucleic acid-recognition proteins have lately been implicated as key viral sensors, including the RNA helicases retinoic acid-inducible gene-I (RIG-I) and melanoma differentiation-associated gene (MDA)-5. In this study, we investigated the respective role of TLR3 vs RIG-I/MDA-5 signaling in human respiratory epithelial cells infected by IAV using BEAS-2B cells transfected with vectors encoding either a dominant-negative form of TLR3 or of mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS; a signaling intermediate of RIG-I and MDA-5), or with plasmids overexpressing functional RIG-I or MDA-5. We demonstrate that the sensing of IAV by TLR3 primarily regulates a proinflammatory response, whereas RIG-I (but not MDA-5) mediates both a type I IFN-dependent antiviral signaling and a proinflammatory response.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
