ABSTRACT
Peroxisomes are ubiquitous organelles with well-defined functions in lipid and reactive oxygen species metabolism, having a significant impact on a large number of important diseases. Growing evidence points to them, in concert with mitochondria, as important players within the antiviral response. In this review we summarize and discuss the recent findings concerning the relevance of peroxisomes within innate immunity. We not only emphasize their importance as platforms for cellular antiviral signaling but also review the current information concerning their role in the control of bacterial infections. We furthermore review the recent data that pinpoints peroxisomes as regulators of inflammatory processes.
