| Abstract |
|
By sensing viral nucleic acids and producing type I interferons, plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are key mediators of antiviral immunity. But pDCs might also contribute to autoimmune disease by responding to self nucleic acids. Here, pDC mechanisms of action and modes of regulation are reviewed.
