Influenza Viral Manipulation of Sphingolipid Metabolism and Signaling to Modulate Host Defense System
Viruses attempt to create a distinctive cellular environment to favor viral replication and spread. Recent studies uncovered new functions of the sphingolipid signaling/metabolism during pathogenic virus infections. While sphingolipids such as sphingomyelin and ceramide were reported to influence th...
