Immunization and Aging: a Learning Process in the Immune Network
The immune system can be thought as a complex network of different interacting elements. A cellular automaton, defined in shape-space, was recently shown to exhibit self-regulation and complex behavior and is, therefore, a good candidate to model the ...

Microbiota in neuroinflammation and synaptic dysfunction: a focus on Alzheimer’s disease
Background The implication of gut microbiota in the control of brain functions in health and disease is a novel, currently emerging concept.

Nitric oxide (NO) and electrophilic cyclopentenone prostaglandins (CyPG) are local mediators that modulate cellular response to oxidative stress in different pathophysiological processes. In particular, there is increasing evidence about their functional

Fresh Insights into Disease Etiology and the Role of Microbial Pathogens. [PDF]
Pathogens have been implicated in the initiation and/or promotion of systemic sclerosis (scleroderma, SSc); however, no evidence was found to substantiate the direct contribution to this disease in past years.

IFN-mediated negative feedback supports bacteria class-specific macrophage inflammatory responses
Despite existing evidence for tuning of innate immunity to different classes of bacteria, the molecular mechanisms used by macrophages to tailor inflammatory responses to specific pathogens remain incompletely defined.

Immunotronics - novel finite-state-machine architectures with built-in self-test using self-nonself differentiation [PDF]
A novel approach to hardware fault tolerance is demonstrated that takes inspiration from the human immune system as a method of fault detection. The human immune system is a remarkable system of interacting cells and organs that protect the body from ...

Modern biotherapy has been in use for some 30 years. The first types of biotherapy were nonspecific stimulators of the immune response, but advances in genetic engineering are allowing the mass production of pure biological products which are now being ...

Correlations in the T Cell Response to Altered Peptide Ligands
The vertebrate immune system is a wonder of modern evolution. Occasionally, however, correlations within the immune system lead to inappropriate recruitment of preexisting T cells against novel viral diseases.

TLR7-mediated skin inflammation remotely triggers chemokine expression and leukocyte accumulation in the brain [PDF]
Background: The relationship between the brain and the immune system has become increasingly topical as, although it is immune-specialised, the CNS is not free from the influences of the immune system.

In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.
