The diverse roles of C-type lectin-like receptors in immunity [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Our understanding of the C-type lectin-like receptors (CTLRs) and their functions in immunity have continued to expand from their initial roles in pathogen recognition.

C-Type Lectin-Like Receptors As Emerging Orchestrators of Sterile Inflammation Represent Potential Therapeutic Targets [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Over the last decade, C-type lectin-like receptors (CTLRs), expressed mostly by myeloid cells, have gained increasing attention for their role in the fine tuning of both innate and adaptive immunity.

C-Type Lectin-Like Receptors: Head or Tail in Cell Death Immunity [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
C-type lectin-like receptors (CLRs) represent a family of transmembrane pattern recognition receptors, expressed primarily by myeloid cells. They recognize not only pathogen moieties for host defense, but also modified self-antigens such as damage ...

Immunoregulatory Property of C-Type Lectin-Like Receptors in Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
The innate immune system identifies exogenous threats or endogenous stress through germline-encoded receptors called pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that initiate consecutive downstream signaling pathways to control immune responses. However, the contribution of the immune system and inflammation to fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILD ...

The Dectin-2 family of C-type lectin-like receptors: an update [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Immunology, 2013
Myeloid and non-myeloid cells express members of the C-type lectin-like receptor (CTLR) family, which mediate crucial cellular functions during immunity and homeostasis. Of relevance here is the dendritic cell-associated C-type lectin-2 (Dectin-2) family of CTLRs, which includes blood dendritic cell antigen 2 (BDCA-2), dendritic cell immunoactivating ...

C-Type Lectin-Like Receptors of the Dectin-1 Cluster: Ligands and Signaling Pathways [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Reviews of Immunology, 2013
Innate immunity is constructed around genetically encoded receptors that survey the intracellular and extracellular environments for signs of invading microorganisms. These receptors recognise the invader and through complex intracellular networks of molecular signaling, they destroy the threat whilst instructing effective adaptive immune responses ...

Snake C-Type Lectin-Like Proteins and Platelet Receptors

open access: yesPathophysiology of Haemostasis and Thrombosis, 2005
Snake venoms are complex mixtures of biologically active proteins and peptides. Many affect haemostasis by activating or inhibiting coagulant factors or platelets, or by disrupting endothelium. Snake venom components are classified into various families, such as serine proteases, metalloproteinases, C-type lectin-like proteins, disintegrins and ...

Production of recombinant soluble dimeric C-type lectin-like receptors of rat natural killer cells. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2019
AbstractWorking at the border between innate and adaptive immunity, natural killer (NK) cells play a key role in the immune system by protecting healthy cells and by eliminating malignantly transformed, stressed or virally infected cells. NK cell recognition of a target cell is mediated by a receptor “zipper” consisting of various activating and ...

C-type lectin receptor signaling in schistosomiasis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Schistosomiasis is a major neglected tropical disease caused by helminth parasites of the genus Schistosoma, affecting over 250 million people worldwide and leading to substantial morbidity primarily driven by egg-induced immunopathology.
