TLR1-induced chemokine production is critical for mucosal immunity against Yersinia enterocolitica. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Our gastrointestinal tract is a portal of entry for a number of bacteria and viruses. Thus, this tissue must develop ways to induce antigen-specific T cell and antibody responses quickly.

Calcium signaling in plant defense

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Calcium signaling acts as a central hub in plant immunity, translating pathogen perception into defense responses. This review highlights the channels, sensors, and signaling networks involved, and discusses how pathogens subvert calcium dynamics, as well as how this knowledge may inspire innovative strategies for engineering durable crop resistance ...

Plasmodesmata‐located proteins: The molecular hubs in noncell‐autonomous immunity

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Plasmodesmata serve as critical battlefields for plant immunity, regulated by diverse proteins. This article provides a comprehensive review of the regulatory mechanisms, challenges, and future directions concerning proteins located within plasmodesmata and their roles in plant defense responses.

Flagellin-deficient Legionella mutants evade caspase-1- and Naip5-mediated macrophage immunity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2006
Macrophages from C57BL/6J (B6) mice restrict growth of the intracellular bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila. Restriction of bacterial growth requires caspase-1 and the leucine-rich repeat-containing protein Naip5 (Birc1e). We identified mutants of

Flagellin from an Incompatible Strain of Acidovorax avenae Mediates H2O2 Generation Accompanying Hypersensitive Cell Death and Expression of PAL, Cht-1, and PBZ1, but Not of LOX in Rice

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2003
Acidovorax avenae causes a brown stripe disease in monocot plants. We recently reported that a rice-incompatible strain of A. avenae caused hypersensitive cell death in rice and that the flagellin of the incompatible strain was involved in this response.

Eggplant and related species are promising genetic resources to dissect the plant immune response to Pseudomonas syringae and Xanthomonas euvesicatoria and to identify new resistance determinants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The apparent lack of durability of many resistance (R) genes highlights the need for the constant identification of new genetic sources of resistance for the breeding of new disease-resistant crop cultivars.

Mucosal immunization with a flagellin-adjuvanted Hgp44 vaccine enhances protective immune responses in a murine Porphyromonas gingivalis infection model

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2017
Chronic periodontitis is caused by interactions between the oral polymicrobial community and host factors. Periodontal diseases are associated with dysbiotic shift in oral microbiota.

Shoc2 recognizes bacterial flagellin and mediates antibacterial Erk/Stat signaling in an invertebrate.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2022
Flagellin is a key bacterial virulence factor that can stimulate molecular immune signaling in both animals and plants. The detailed mechanisms of recognizing flagellin and mounting an efficient immune response have been uncovered in vertebrates; however,

Toxoplasma gondii profilin does not stimulate an innate immune response through bovine or human TLR5 [PDF]

open access: yes
Toxoplasma gondii is responsible for one of the most prevalent infections in people. T. gondii profilin (TgPr) is a protein integral to parasite movement and cellular invasion. Murine TLR has been described to bind TgPr. Furthermore, more recently, human
