Identification of pigeon mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS) and its role in antiviral innate immunity.
Article in Archives of virology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Pigeons can be infected with various RNA viruses, and their innate immune system responds to viral infection to establish an antiviral response. Mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS), an important adaptor protein in signal transduction, plays a pivotal role in amplifying the innate immune response. In this study, we successfully cloned pigeon MAVS (piMAVS) and performed a bioinformatics analysis. The results showed that the caspase recruitment domain (CARD) and transmembrane (TM) domain are highly conserved in poultry and mammals but poorly conserved in other species. Furthermore, we observed that MAVS expression is upregulated both in pigeons and pigeon embryonic fibroblasts (PEFs) upon RNA virus infection. Overexpression of MAVS resulted in increased levels of β-interferon (IFN-β), IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), and interleukin (ILs) mRNA and inhibited Newcastle disease virus (NDV) replication. We also found that piMAVS and human MAVS (huMAVS) induced stronger expression of IFN-β and ISGs when compared to chicken MAVS (chMAVS), and this phenomenon was also reflected in the degree of inhibition of NDV replication. Our findings demonstrate that piMAVS plays an important role in repressing viral replication by regulating the activation of the IFN signal pathway in pigeons. This study not only sheds light on the function of piMAVS in innate immunity but also contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of the innate immunity system in poultry. Our data also provide unique insights into the differences in innate immunity between poultry and mammal.
