CARD8 helps human immune system respond to viruses like Covid 19: Study
Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
Molecular sensors that form the so-called inflammasome help activate inflammatory responses to pathogens. A new study suggested that CARD8 is a highly evolved sensor that can detect a variety of viruses and is critical to the human immune system's capacity to identify and respond to coronavi
