This intracellular Detection Set is for measuring protein levels in cell lysates.  It allows to quantitatively determine:
a. Levels of MDA5
b. Interferon response since MDA5 is an interferon inducible gene
b. Virus infection response

General Information
The innate immune response to viruses is initiated upon detection of viral RNA generated during the life cycle of most viruses [1]. Recognition of the viral RNA is mediated by either the two cytoplasmic RNA helicases Retinoic acid Inducible Gene-1 (RIG-I ; Ddx58) and Melanoma Differentiation Associated gene 5 (MDA5 / Helicard; Ifih1) [2] or by Toll-like Receptor 3 (TLR3) located to an endosomal-like compartment [3]. RIG-I and MDA5 belongs to the family of RIG-I like receptor (RLR) together with the protein LGP2 whose function is still elusive [4, 5]. Upon binding to RNA, RIG-I or MDA5 binds a new mediator named Cardif, MAVS (mitochondrial antiviral signalling), IPS-1 (interferon-β promoter stimulator 1) or VISA (virus-induced signalling adapter) [6, 7]. Cardif/ MAVS/ IPS-1/ VISA then interacts with several TRAFs molecules, leading to the activation of regulatory kinases, such as TBK1, IKKε , and the IKKα/β/γ complex. These kinases activate respective transcription factors, IRF-3, IRF-7, and NF-κB that participate in the activation of IFN and other inflammatory cytokine genes. RIG-I is activated by dsRNA and 5′-ppp RNA while only poly I: C acts as a chemical agonist for MDA5. The physiological agonist of MDA5 has still to be discovered. Mda-5 is an early response gene inducible by IFN and tumor necrosis factor-α, responding predominantly to IFN-β [8].

Product Description
A20 is a zinc finger protein that renders cells resistant to apoptosis. A20-deficient mice develop severe inflammation and are hyper-responsive to LPS. S.M. O'Reilly & P.N. Moynagh have shown that full length A20 inhibits activation of NF-kB and AP-1 by TLR4 [1].  A20 associates with A20-binding inhibitor of NF-kB (ABIN)-1 and -2 [2-4], which interfere with NF-kB activation upstream of the IKK complex.

TRADD Protein Is an Essential Component of the RIG-like Helicase Antiviral Pathway: M.C. Michallet, et al.; Immunity 28, 651 (2008) Abstract
General Information
RIG-I (retinoic acid-inducible gene I; Ddx58) and MDA5 (melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5, also known as Ifih1 or Helicard) are proteins that sense viral replication intermediates, such as double-stranded RNA and triggers the host antiviral programs. These molecules signal the downstream activation of NF-κB and IFN regulatory factor (IRF) -3, which coordinately regulate the expression of type-I interferons.
Cardif (also called VISA/IPS-1/MAVS) is a new CARD (caspase activation and recruitment domain)-containing adaptor protein that interacts with the CARD domain of RIG-I and MDA5, leading to the activation of NF-κB and IRF3. Cardif is located to the mitochondrial outer membrane. Removal of the mitochondrial-targeting domain of cardif abolishes its ability to induce IFNs. Cardif is cleaved and inactivated by NS3-4A, a serine protease from hepatitis C virus known to block interferon-β production.

Product Specific Literature References
Apaf-1 and caspase-9 are required for cytokine withdrawal-induced apoptosis of mast cells but dispensable for their functional and clonogenic death: V.S. Marsden, et al.; Blood 107, 1872 (2006) Abstract; Full Text
General Information
Capases are a highly conserved family of cysteine proteases and are synthesized as inactive zymogens, which are cleaved at Asp-x sites during apoptosis, generating large and small subunits that heterodimerize to form the active enzyme. Caspase-1 is a member of the ICE/CED-3 family of caspases and is detected in the pro-form as a protein of 45 kDa.
Caspase-1 generates the bioactive form of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β from its biologically inactive precursor. Overexpression of caspase-1 in cells induces apoptosis, which can be inhibited by cytokine response modifier A (CrmA). Caspase-1 mRNA is predominantly expressed in the spleen and lung and to a lesser extent in skeletal muscle, kidney, testis and heart and within these tissues macrophages preferentially express caspase-1. Caspase-1 deficient mice have no gross abnormalities, however, macrophages from caspase-1-deficient mice are defective in IL-β processing and release.
