Core Tip	Cigarette smoking (CS) alters a wide range of immunological functions, including innate and adaptive immune responses to viral infection. This review aims to give a brief summary of recent findings on the suppressive effects of CS on the innate response to influenza virus, especially as it pertains to suppression of the function of pattern recognition receptors for influenza virus. Studies on CS inhibition to innate response will be important in designing strategies for the development of novel treatments to mitigate the adverse consequences of CS and Flu infection.
