Adaptive immunity, chronic inflammation and the clock

open access: yesSeminars in Immunopathology, 2022
The adaptive arm of the immune system facilitates recognition of specific foreign pathogens and, via the action of T and B lymphocytes, induces a fine-tuned response to target the pathogen and develop immunological memory.

Adaptive immunity or evolutionary adaptation? Transgenerational immune systems at the crossroads

open access: yesBiology & Philosophy, 2022
AbstractIn recent years, immune systems have sparked considerable interest within the philosophy of science. One issue that has received increased attention is whether other phyla besides vertebrates display an adaptive immune system. Particularly the discovery of CRISPR-Cas9-based systems has triggered a discussion about how to classify adaptive ...

Exploring the pre-immune landscape of antigen-specific T cells

open access: yesGenome Medicine, 2018
Background Adaptive immune responses to newly encountered pathogens depend on the mobilization of antigen-specific clonotypes from a vastly diverse pool of naive T cells.

'Towards a Conceptual Framework for Innate Immunity' [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Innate immunity now occupies a central role in immunology. However, artificial immune system models have largely been inspired by adaptive not innate immunity.

NLRP3 Inflammasome: Checkpoint Connecting Innate and Adaptive Immunity in Autoimmune Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Autoimmune diseases are a broad spectrum of human diseases that are characterized by the breakdown of immune tolerance and the production of autoantibodies.

Comparative Analysis of B-Cell Receptor Repertoires Induced by Live Yellow Fever Vaccine in Young and Middle-Age Donors

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Age-related changes can significantly alter the state of adaptive immune system and often lead to attenuated response to novel pathogens and vaccination.

Intestinal macromolecular transport supporting adaptive immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The gastrointestinal tract performs opposing functions of nutrient absorption, barrier maintenance, and the delivery of luminal substances for the appropriate induction of tolerogenic or protective adaptive immunity.

Understanding Early-Life Adaptive Immunity to Guide Interventions for Pediatric Health

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Infants are capable of mounting adaptive immune responses, but their ability to develop long-lasting immunity is limited. Understanding the particularities of the neonatal adaptive immune system is therefore critical to guide the design of immune-based ...

Adaptive Immunity and Inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Inflammation, 2015
Inflammation is part of a complex biological response to injury as a result of different stimuli such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants. Local signals at the sites of inflammation mediate rapid cells mobilization and recruitment and dictate differentiation programs whereby these cells drive clearance of “inflammatory inducers” and promote ...

Livestock abundance predicts vampire bat demography, immune profiles, and bacterial infection risk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Human activities create novel food resources that can alter wildlife–pathogen interactions. If resources amplify or dampen, pathogen transmission probably depends on both host ecology and pathogen biology, but studies that measure responses to ...
