Demystifying Medicine - Encephalitis and the Immune System
Demystifying Medicine Lecture Series
Encephalitis, the inflammation of the brain, can be brought on by viral, bacterial and fungal infections, autoimmune diseases, and immunosuppression. Many diseases causing encephalitis are transmitted by mosquitos and ticks. As such, encephalitis is sadly pervasive, affecting more than 4 million people annually worldwide and causing upwards of 150,000 deaths. Symptoms range from mild headaches and nausea to debilitating seizures, hallucinations, and difficulty speaking and remembering.

New insights into the human type I interferon response revealed by flavivirus-host interactions
NIH Director's Seminar Series
More than a quarter of the world ’ s population is at annual risk of infection with flaviviruses, which include West Nile virus, Zika virus, dengue virus, yellow fever virus and tick-borne encephalitis virus. Despite being closely related, these viruses have evolved different mechanisms to evade the type I interferon response. This seminar will discuss two distinct interactions between various flaviviruses and human interferon signaling pathways. These two studies provide new insight into regulation of interferon signaling through the IFNAR receptor, as well as the antiviral functions of the...
