Epigenetic regulation of RNA sensors: Sentinels of immune response.

Living host system possess mechanisms like innate immune system to combat against inflammation, stress singling, and cancer. These mechanisms are initiated by PAMP and DAMP mediated recognition by PRR. PRR is consist of variety of nucleic acid sensors like-RNA sensors. They play crucial role in identifying exogenous and endogenous RNA molecules, which subsequently mediate pro/inflammatory cytokine, IFN and ISGs response in traumatized or tumorigenic conditions. The sensors can sensitize wide range of nucleic acid particle in term of size and structure, while each category sensors belongs subclasses with differentially expressed in cell and distinguished functioning mechanisms. They are also able to make comparison between self and non-self-nucleic acid molecules through specific mechanisms. Besides exhibiting anti-inflammatory and anti-tumorigenic responses, RNA sensors cover the broad spectrum of response mechanisms. Transcriptionally RNA sensors undergo with tight epigenetic regulations. In this review study, we will be going to discuss about the details of RNA sensors, their functional mechanisms and epi-transactional regulations.
