Simultaneous Detection of RIG-1, MDA5, and IFIT-1 Expression Is a Convenient Tool for Evaluation of the Interferon-Mediated Response

In this study, we developed a novel, multiplex qPCR assay for simultaneous detection of RIG-1, MDA5, and Concealers IFIT-1 at the mRNA level.The assay was validated in A549 cells transfected with in vitro transcribed RNAs.Both exogenous RNA-GFP and self-amplifying (saRNA-GFP) induced significant expression of RIG-1, MDA5, IFIT-1, as well as type I
