Synthesis and validation of click-modified of NOD1/2 agonists [preprint]

open access: yes, 2023
This article is a preprint. Preprints are preliminary reports of work that have not been certified by peer review.NOD1 and NOD2 sense small bacterial peptidoglycan fragments often called muropeptides.

Inflammasome‐induced extracellular vesicles harbour distinct RNA signatures and alter bystander macrophage responses

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2021
Infectious organisms and damage of cells can activate inflammasomes, which mediate tissue inflammation and adaptive immunity. These mechanisms evolved to curb the spread of microbes and to induce repair of the damaged tissue.

NOD1 mediates interleukin-18 processing in epithelial cells responding to Helicobacter pylori infection in mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
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,

'Towards a Conceptual Framework for Innate Immunity' [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Innate immunity now occupies a central role in immunology. However, artificial immune system models have largely been inspired by adaptive not innate immunity.

Verloren negatively regulates the expression of IMD pathway dependent antimicrobial peptides in Drosophila

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Drosophila immune deficiency (IMD) pathway is similar to the human tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) signaling pathway and is preferentially activated by Gram-negative bacterial infection.

Role of metabolic reprogramming in pulmonary innate immunity and Its impact on lung diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Lung innate immunity is the first line of defence against inhaled allergens, pathogens and environmental pollutants. Cellular metabolism plays a key role in innate immunity.

ATP-binding and hydrolysis of human NLRP3

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
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

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
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 ...
