How does spaceflight affect the acquired immune system? [PDF]

open access: goldNPJ Microgravity, 2020
AbstractThe impact of spaceflight on the immune system has been investigated extensively during spaceflight missions and in model experiments conducted on Earth. Data suggest that the spaceflight environment may affect the development of acquired immunity, and immune responses.

New Aspect of Immune System: Innate Immunity and Acquired Immunity

open access: diamondJournal of the Japanese Association for Infectious Diseases, 2006
Recently, it has been turned out that our internal defense system is composed of two distinct components; innate/natural immune system and acquired/adaptive immune system. The former innate immunity is principally located at the surface area such as skin and mucosal compartment, while the latter acquired immunity is observed mainly in the circulating ...

Cigarette smoke-induced pulmonary emphysema in scid-mice. Is the acquired immune system required? [PDF]

open access: goldRespiratory Research, 2005
Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is associated with a chronic inflammatory response of the host to chronic exposure to inhaled toxic gases and particles. Although inflammatory cells of both the innate and adaptive immune system infiltrate

The NKT cell system: bridging innate and acquired immunity [PDF]

open access: bronzeNature Immunology, 2003
Although natural killer T cells are activated during infection, it is not clear how this process occurs. Closer examination indicates that recognition of endogenous ligands and interleukin 12, rather than bacterial products, may drive the activation process.
