Teleosts rely on innate immunity to recognize and defense against pathogenic microorganisms. RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) family is the major pattern recognition receptor (PRR) to detect RNA viruses. After recognition of viral RNA components, these cytosolic sensors activate downstream signaling cascades to induce the expression of type I interferons (IFNs) and other cytokines firing antiviral responses. Meanwhile, numerous molecules take part in the complex regulation of RLR signals by various methods, such as post-translational modification (PTM), to produce an immune response that is appropriately balanced. In this review, we summarize our recent understanding of PTMs and other regulatory proteins in modulating RLR signaling pathway, which is helpful for systematically studying the regulatory mechanism of antiviral innate immunity of teleost fish.

The stress-induced keratin intermediate filament gene/protein (K16) is spatially restricted to the suprabasal compartment of the epidermis and extensively used as a biomarker for psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa, atopic dermatitis and other inflammatory disorders. However, its role in these conditions remains poorly defined. Here we show that K16 negatively regulates type-I interferon (IFN) signaling and innate immune responses.

The mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS) is a pivotal adaptor in the antiviral innate immune signaling pathway and plays a crucial role in the activation of antiviral defences. This comprehensive review delves into the multifaceted functions of MAVS, spanning from its integral role in the RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) pathway to its emerging roles in tumor biology and autoimmune diseases. We discuss the structural and functional aspects of MAVS, its activation mechanisms, and the intricate regulatory networks that govern its activity.

Rice ( L.) is a staple food for more than half of the world's population, but its yields are increasingly threatened by environmental problems, including soil compaction. This problem limits root growth which limits water and nutrient foraging capacity thus reduces productivity due to, restricted diffusion of ethylene, a key plant hormone playing an important role in exacerbating these effects.

Antiviral signaling downstream of RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) proceeds through a multi-protein complex organized around the adaptor protein mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS). Protein complex function can be modulated by RNA molecules that provide allosteric regulation or act as molecular guides or scaffolds. We hypothesized that RNA plays a role in organizing MAVS signaling platforms.

The article characterises platelets, pointing out the role and contribution of their numerous receptors determining their specific and broad immune activity. Three types of platelet receptors are described, that is, extracellular and intracellular receptors-TLR (toll-like receptors), NLR (NOD-like receptor), and RLR (RIG-I-like receptor); extracellular receptors-selectins and integrins; and their other extracellular receptors-CLR (C-type lectin receptor), CD (cluster of differentiation), TNF (tumour necrosis factor), among others. Outlining the contribution of these numerous platelet receptors to the intravascular immunity, it has been shown that they are formed by their fusion with pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), and lifestyle-associated molecular patterns (LAMPs).
