Abstract

Two complementary works by Chan et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20231725), and Ru et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20240010), identify defective RNA processing as the root cause of impaired antiviral immunity against SARS-CoV2 in the human brainstem. These studies provide molecular insight into virus-associated severe brainstem encephalitis through PKR inactivation.<br /> (© 2024 Valeri and Kajaste-Rudnitski.)
