Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Nucleic acid-sensing through PRRs plays a key role in modulating innate and adaptive immunity. • Microbial-origin PAMPs or DAMPs can be used as therapeutic antigens. • DNA helicases can by targeted by the arrest of replication and the breakage of DNA double strands. • The newly discovered STING pathway may be a therapeutic target.
