The interleukin-1 family members, IL-1β and IL-18, are processed into their biologically active forms by multi-protein complexes, known as inflammasomes. Although the inflammasome pathways that mediate IL-1β processing in myeloid cells have been defined,

In vivo detection of lamellocytes in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]
Drosophila has recently become a powerful model organism for studies of innate immunity. The cellular elements of innate immunity in Drosophila, the hemocytes, have been characterized by morphological criteria, molecular markers, and cell-type-specific ...

ATP-binding and hydrolysis of human NLRP3
Analysis of the inflammasome-forming protein NLRP3 provides insights into the function of conserved residues in the ATP-binding site of NLRP3 and the correlation of ATP hydrolysis with inflammasome activation.

The long non-coding RNA LUCAT1 is a negative feedback regulator of interferon responses in humans
lncRNAs are transcriptional regulators, but little is known of them functioning as negative feedback regulators of inflammation in humans. Here, the authors show that the human lncRNA LUCAT1 sequesters STAT1 to limit JAK/STAT signaling and the ...

Innate immunity, assessed by plasma NO measurements, is not suppressed during the incubation fast in eiders [PDF]
Immunity is hypothesized to share limited resources with other physiological functions and may mediate life history trade-offs, for example between reproduction and survival.

Pleiotropic functions of the tumor- and metastasis-suppressing Matrix Metalloproteinase-8 in mammary cancer in MMTV-PyMT transgenic mice [PDF]
Matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8; neutrophil collagenase) is an important regulator of innate immunity which has onco-suppressive actions in numerous tumor ...
