Overexpression of Chicken IRF7 Increased Viral Replication and Programmed Cell Death to the Avian Influenza Virus Infection Through TGF-Beta/FoxO Signaling Axis in DF-1
During mammalian viral infections, interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) partners with IRF3 to regulate the type I interferon response. In chickens, however, it is still unclear how IRF7 functions in the host innate immune response, especially given that IRF3 is absent. To further elucidate the func...
