Inflammasome-mediated antagonism of type I interferon enhances Rickettsia pathogenesis

Nature Microbiology, 2019
The innate immune system fights infection with inflammasomes and interferons. Facultative bacterial pathogens that inhabit the host cytosol avoid inflammasomes1–6 and are often insensitive to type I interferons (IFN-I), but are restricted by IFN-γ7–11 ...
