Journal ArticleDOI
The RNA helicase RIG-I has an essential function in double-stranded RNA-induced innate antiviral responses.
Mitsutoshi Yoneyama,Mika Kikuchi,Takashi Natsukawa,Noriaki Shinobu,Tadaatsu Imaizumi,Makoto Miyagishi,Kazunari Taira,Shizuo Akira,Takashi Fujita +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I), which encodes a DExD/H box RNA helicase that contains a caspase recruitment domain, as an essential regulator for dsRNA-induced signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The cloning of complementary DNAs encoding adiponectin receptors 1 and 2 by expression cloning supports the conclusion that they serve as receptors for globular and full-length adiponECTin, and that they mediate increased AMP kinase and PPAR-α ligand activities, as well as fatty-acid oxidation and glucose uptake by adiponectionin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shared and Unique Functions of the DExD/H-Box Helicases RIG-I, MDA5, and LGP2 in Antiviral Innate Immunity
Mitsutoshi Yoneyama,Mika Kikuchi,Kanae Matsumoto,Tadaatsu Imaizumi,Makoto Miyagishi,Makoto Miyagishi,Kazunari Taira,Kazunari Taira,Eileen Foy,Yueh Ming Loo,Michael Gale,Shizuo Akira,Shin Yonehara,Atsushi Kato,Takashi Fujita +14 more
TL;DR: The results highlight ingenious mechanisms for initiating antiviral innate immune responses and the action of virus-encoded inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI
DAI (DLM-1/ZBP1) is a cytosolic DNA sensor and an activator of innate immune response
Akinori Takaoka,ZhiChao Wang,Myoung Kwon Choi,Hideyuki Yanai,Hideo Negishi,Tatsuma Ban,Yan Lu,Makoto Miyagishi,Tatsuhiko Kodama,Kenya Honda,Yusuke Ohba,Tadatsugu Taniguchi +11 more
TL;DR: The artificial expression of otherwise IFN-inducible DAI (DLM-1/ZBP1) in mouse fibroblasts selectively enhances the DNA-mediated induction of type I IFN and other genes involved in innate immunity, and may offer new insight into the signalling mechanisms underlying DNA-associated antimicrobial immunity and autoimmune disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
U6 promoter-driven siRNAs with four uridine 3' overhangs efficiently suppress targeted gene expression in mammalian cells
TL;DR: A vector-based siRNA expression system that can induce RNAi in mammalian cells is reported, which might allow therapeutic applications by means of vector-mediated RNAi and facilitate a wide range of functional analysis of mammalian genes.
