In addition, GNAstV infection induced the activation of pattern recognition receptors (RIG-I, MDA-5, and TLR3) and key adaptor molecules (MyD88, MAVS, and IRF7) in the spleen and kidney, and upregulated the gene expression of interferon-α in the spleen and antiviral proteins (MX1, OASL, and IFITM3) in the spleen and kidney. The gene discussed is MYD88; the disease is infection.
