Figure 7. RIG-I–like receptor sensing of M. tuberculosis RNA promotes pathogen survival.

Figure 7

MDA5 activation facilitates M. tuberculosis survival through a culmination of skewed proinflammatory cytokine production and inflammasome activation and attenuation of autophagic pathways. RIG-I sensing of M. tuberculosis RNA contributes to M. tuberculosis–mediated type I IFN responses and innate immune subversion though decreased autophagic responses.
