“…Canonically, RIG-I is regarded as an intracellular RNA receptor because cytosolic expression has been reported for dendritic cells, monocytes, mesothelial cells, monocytes/PBMCs, and other cell types (1,9,18,22). In line with these previously reported cell types, we detected RIG-I protein expression in cytosolic neutrophil fractions at a similar molecular mass as in PBMCs, which are well known to express cytosolic RIG-I.…”
