A report, 'Immediate lymphotoxin beta receptor-mediated transcriptional response in host defense against L. monocytogenes,' is newly published data in Immunobiology. "The lymphotoxin beta receptor (LTbetaR) mediates crucial signals in host defense against intracellular bacteria and viruses. Mice deficient in LTbetaR readily succumb to infections with Listeria monocytogenes, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and murine cytomegalovirus (mCMV)," scientists writing in the journal Immunobiology report. "LTbetaR has been shown to be important for the early induction of interferon (IFN) beta after infection with mCMV. However, up to now, it is not known...
