| Abstract | Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) is a negative-sense single-stranded RNA virus that closely resembles its deadly cousin, rabies virus. In mice, VSV elicits a rapid and severe T cell—independent encephalitis, indicating that resident glial cells play an important role in the initiation of central nervous system (CNS) inflammation. Recently, retinoic acid—inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like helicases have been shown to function as intracellular pattern recognition receptors for replicative viral RNA motifs. In the present study, we demonstrate that the expression of two members of this RIG-I—like receptor family (RLR), RIG-I and melanoma differentiation-associated antigen 5 (MDA5), are elevated in mouse brain tissue following intranasal administration of VSV. Using isolated cultures of primary murine glial cells, we demonstrate that microglia and astrocytes constitutively express both RIG-I and MDA5 transcripts and protein. Importantly, we show that such expression is elevated following challenge with VSV or another negative-sense RNA virus, Sendai virus. The authors provide evidence that such induction is indirect and secondary to the production of soluble mediators by infected cells. Circumstantial evidence for the functional nature of RLR expression in glial cells comes from the observation that microglia express the RLR downstream effector molecule, interferon promoter stimulator-1, and demonstrate diminished levels of the negative RLR regulator, laboratory of genetics and physiology 2, following viral challenge. These findings raise the exciting possibility that RLR molecules play important roles in the detection of viral CNS pathogens and the initiation of protective immune responses or, alternatively, the progression of damaging inflammation within the brain. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
