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.

t Testing the Immune System [PDF]
Amid the flurry of grant writing and experimentation, statistical analysis sometimes gets less attention than it requires. Here, we describe fully the considerations that should go into the employment of the statistical two-sample t test.

The Immune System: the ultimate fractionated cyber-physical system
In this little vision paper we analyze the human immune system from a computer science point of view with the aim of understanding the architecture and features that allow robust, effective behavior to emerge from local sensing and actions.

Molecular Mechanisms of the Toll-Like Receptor, STING, MAVS, Inflammasome, and Interferon Pathways
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) form the front line of defense against pathogens. Many of the molecular mechanisms that facilitate PRR signaling have been characterized in detail, which is critical for the development of accurate PRR pathway models ...

SIMMUNE, a tool for simulating and analyzing immune system behavior
We present a new approach to the simulation and analysis of immune system behavior. The simulations that can be done with our software package called SIMMUNE are based on immunological data that describe the behavior of immune system agents (cells ...
