Innate Immune Basis for Rift Valley Fever Susceptibility in Mouse Models

Abstract Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) leads to varied clinical manifestations in animals and in humans that range from moderate fever to fatal illness, suggesting that host immune responses are important determinants of the disease severity. We investigated the immune basis for the extreme suscept...
