Cytosolic Sensors of Viral RNA Are Involved in the Production of Interleukin-6 via Toll-Like Receptor 3 Signaling in Human Glomerular Endothelial Cells
Conclusion: Interestingly, cytosolic sensors of viral RNA were found to be involved in IL-6 production via TLR3 signaling in GECs. Regional activation of TLR3/IFN- β/ MDA5/RIG-I/IL-6 axis due to viral and “pseudoviral” infections is involved in innate immunity and inflammatory reactions in GECs. We believe this signaling pathway also plays a pivotal role in the development of some forms of GN.Kidney Blood Press Res 2019;44:62 –71

Interferon-Stimulated Gene 15, a Type I Interferon-Dependent Transcript, Is Involved in a Negative Feedback Loop in Innate Immune Reactions in Human Mesangial Cells
Conclusion: Since unconjugated free ISG15 negatively regulates the phosphorylation of STAT1 and its downstream reactions, ISG15 dysregulation may be involved in the pathogenesis of glomerular inflammation. We believe that suitable interventions in these innate immune cascades is desirable for the future therapeutic strategies for glomerulonephritis.Nephron
