Innate recognition of viruses by plasmacytoid dendritic cells

Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are thought to be specialized for early viral recognition and secrete large amounts of the anti-viral cytokines type I interferon (lFNa/f3). This thesis studied viral recognition by pDCs and aimed to identify novel viral sensing receptors for viral glycoproteins....
