Dependence on Dectin-1 Varies With Multiple Candida Species [PDF]
Four Candida spp. (albicans, glabrata, tropicalis, parapsilosis) cause >95% of invasive Candida infections. C. albicans elicits immune responses via pathogen recognition receptors including C-type lectin-like receptors (CLRs).

Dectin-1-Independent Macrophage Phagocytosis of Mycobacterium abscessus. [PDF]
Mycobacterium abscessus, a species of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), is an opportunistic pathogen that is readily cleared by healthy lungs but can cause pulmonary infections in people with chronic airway diseases. Although knowledge pertaining to molecular mechanisms of host defense against NTM is increasing, macrophage receptors that recognize M ...

DECTIN-1: A modifier protein in CTLA-4 haploinsufficiency. [PDF]
Autosomal dominant loss-of-function (LoF) variants in cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4 ( CTLA4 ) cause immune dysregulation with autoimmunity, immunodeficiency and lymphoproliferation (IDAIL). Incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are characteristic of IDAIL caused by CTLA-4 haploinsufficiency ...

Dectin-1 Regulates Hepatic Fibrosis and Hepatocarcinogenesis by Suppressing TLR4 Signaling Pathways
Dectin-1 is a C-type lectin receptor critical in anti-fungal immunity, but Dectin-1 has not been linked to regulation of sterile inflammation or oncogenesis. We found that Dectin-1 expression is upregulated in hepatic fibrosis and liver cancer.

Dectin-1 Activation Exacerbates Obesity and Insulin Resistance in the Absence of MyD88
The underlying mechanism by which MyD88 regulates the development of obesity, metainflammation, and insulin resistance (IR) remains unknown. Global deletion of MyD88 in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice resulted in increased weight gain, impaired glucose ...

RHOA mediated mechanical force generation through Dectin-1 [PDF]
ABSTRACTDectin-1 is an innate immune pattern recognition receptor which recognizes β-glucan on theCandida albicans(C. albicans) cell wall. Recognition of β-glucan by immune cells leads to phagocytosis, oxidative burst, cytokine and chemokine production.
