Article Synopsis
- Healthy organisms maintain homeostasis through coordinated DNA damage response/recovery (DDR/R) and immune response (ImmR) systems that work together to support cellular function.
- DNA and RNA viruses trigger these DDR/R mechanisms, enhancing immunogenicity in host cells and leading to a stronger immune response against threats.
- Disruption in the communication between DDR/R and ImmR can lead to cellular and immune system weaknesses, highlighting potential new therapeutic strategies based on this relationship.
