Popis: | Chang et al. show that Enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection upregulates IKKε isoform 2 (IKKε v2), which in turn activates interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7). This study suggests that host cells trigger IKKε isoform switching to increase the production of interferon against EV71 infection, providing a potential strategy for boosting host’s antiviral defense. |
