Extracellular RNA clearance by non-canonical cell-surface MDA5 protects against lung fibrosis

The role of innate immune receptors, specifically RNA sensors, in non-pathogen-driven lung fibrosis remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that the cytosolic RNA sensor MDA5 could translocate to the cell surface upon bleomycin-induced damage. MDA5-deficient mice exhibited exacerbated lung fibrosis with increased IL-17A⁺...

Toll-like receptors 7 and 8 as therapeutic targets for human diseases.

Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) and TLR8 respond to pathogen-derived single-stranded RNA (ssRNA), orchestrating innate immune defense responses upon infections. However, aberrant recognition of endogenous ssRNAs by these sensors can cause various pathologies, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), familial histiocyt...
