Zusammenfassung: | Highlights ► Flaviviruses have evolved a variety of strategies to modulate the immune responses of host. ► Mechanisms by which flaviviruses evade the innate and adaptive immunity of the host are summarized based on current studies. ► Flaviviruses limit type I IFN signaling by blocking the host gene expression, thus attenuating innate immunity. ► Flaviviruses also inhibit the antiviral immune response of complement system and NK cells. ► High genetic variability of viral antigens allows viral escape from both humoral and cellular immunity against flaviviruses. |
