RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) are a family of intracellular pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that detect viral RNA within the cytoplasm of cells. They play a crucial role in the innate immune response to viral infections by recognizing viral RNA and triggering signaling pathways that lead to the production of type I interferons and other pro-inflammatory cytokines, helping to control and eliminate the virus.
