Collectively, these findings showed that AR IRF7 deficiency impaired the production of type I IFN by pDCs stimulated with SARS-CoV-2, whereas AR and AD deficiencies of TLR3 or AR deficiency of IFNAR1 impaired fibroblast-intrinsic type I IFN immunity to SARS-CoV2. Here, AR is linked to Alzheimer disease.
