The Tug-of-War between Dendritic Cells and Human Chronic Viruses

Abstract: The human immune system is under constant challenge from many viruses, some of which the body is successfully able to clear. Other viruses have evolved to escape the host immune responses and thus persist, leading to the development of chronic diseases. Dendritic cells are professional antigen-presenting cells that play a major role in both innate and adaptive immunity against different pathogens. This review focuses on the interaction of different chronic viruses with dendritic cells and the viruses’ ability … Show more

“…When a virus surpasses a species after years of co-evolution, the new host would respond to it with a more severe immune reaction that can even damage host tissues. Accordingly, possible severe immune response to SARS-CoV-2 is expected ( Fung et al, 2020 ; Rahman et al, 2011 ; Wagstaff et al, 2013 ). There are several pathways proposed to be involved in human immune response toward SARS-CoV-2, and all include two general phases, innate and adaptive immune responses ( Fig.…”

“…Viruses, such as HIV, Ebola virus, Respiratory syncytial Virus, and Influenza A virus infect macrophages causing phenotypic changes in these cells that contribute to disease (Mercer and Greber, 2013). Moreover, these viruses can persist in macrophages resulting in virus dissemination, thereby causing recurring pathogenesis (Rahman, et al, 2011). IFN-γ secreted by T cells and NK cells during virus infections triggers innate antiviral immune responses through the IFN-γ receptor (IFNGR) of macrophages.…”
