Innate immunity and adjuvants [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2011
Innate immunity was for a long time considered to be non-specific because the major function of this system is to digest pathogens and present antigens to the cells involved in acquired immunity. However, recent studies have shown that innate immunity is not non-specific, but is instead sufficiently specific to discriminate self from pathogens through ...

Neutrophils in Innate Immunity

open access: yesSeminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2004
Neutrophils are an important component of innate immunity in the lungs. During bacterial pneumonia, neutrophils are recruited from the capillaries of the pulmonary circulation in the gas-exchanging regions of the lungs. This process requires the coordinated activation of many cells within the lungs, including neutrophils and capillary endothelial cells.

Innate Immunity and MASLD

open access: yesBiomolecules
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has emerged as the most common liver disease worldwide in recent years. MASLD commonly presents as simple hepatic steatosis, but ~25% of patients develop liver inflammation, progressive fibrosis, liver cirrhosis and related hepatocellular carcinoma.

Innate Immunity

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2019
The innate immune response system forms an important line of defense by deploying a limited number of receptors specific for conserved microbial components. This deployment generates a rapid inflammatory response, while activating the adaptive immune system.

Adaptive innate immunity or innate adaptive immunity?

Clinical Science, 2019
AbstractThe innate immunity is frequently accepted as a first line of relatively primitive defense interfering with the pathogen invasion until the mechanisms of ‘privileged’ adaptive immunity with the production of antibodies and activation of cytotoxic lymphocytes ‘steal the show’.

The innate immune response

Immunology Letters, 2014
The innate immune response is of prime importance in the immediate recognition and elimination of invading micro-organisms. However, deregulation of this system is clearly associated with the pathogenesis of a wide range of inflammatory diseases. Innate immunity consists of a humoral and a cellular branch, which are closely interacting.

Innate Immunity and Neurodegeneration

Annual Review of Medicine, 2018
The innate immune system plays diverse roles in health and disease. It represents the first line of defense against infection and is involved in tissue repair, wound healing, and clearance of apoptotic cells and cellular debris. Excessive or nonresolving innate immune activation can lead to systemic or local inflammatory complications and cause or ...
