Inhibitory pattern recognition receptors [PDF]
Pathogen- and damage-associated molecular patterns are sensed by the immune system’s pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) upon contact with a microbe or damaged tissue. In situations such as contact with commensals or during physiological cell death, the immune system should not respond to these patterns.

Tethered Signaling in Inhibitory Immune Receptors [PDF]
Leukocytes play critical roles in preventing pathogenic infection and controlling transformed cells, but must remain quiescent in response to healthy tissue.

Inhibitory receptors beyond T cell exhaustion [PDF]
Inhibitory receptors (iRs) are frequently associated with T cell exhaustion. However, the expression of iRs is also dependent on T cell differentiation and activation.

Functional categories of immune inhibitory receptors
The human genome encodes more than 300 potential immune inhibitory receptors. The reason for this large number of receptors remains unclear. We suggest that inhibitory receptors operate as two distinct functional categories: receptors that control the signalling threshold for immune cell activation and receptors involved in the negative feedback of ...

Inhibitory opioid receptors in canine pylorus
In 18 anesthetized dogs, antroduodenal and pyloric motility was monitored in vivo by a sleeve and perfused side-hole manometric assembly and by antral and duodenal serosal strain gauges. Close intra-arterial injection to the pylorus of dynorphin-(1-13) (Dyn) for kappa-receptors, [D-Pen2,5]enkephalin (DPen2,5-Enk) for delta-receptors, and [N-Me-Phe3-D ...

Characterisation of bovine leukocyte Ig-like receptors [PDF]
Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) are innate immune receptors involved in regulating both innate and adaptive immune functions. LILR show more interspecies conservation than the closely related Killer Ig-like receptors, and homologues have ...

Inhibitory Glycine Receptors: An Update [PDF]
Strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors (GlyRs) mediate synaptic inhibition in the spinal cord, brainstem, and other regions of the mammalian central nervous system. In this minireview, we summarize our current view of the structure, ligand-binding sites, and chloride channel of these receptors and discuss recently emerging functions of distinct GlyR ...

Inhibitory Receptor Diffusion Dynamics [PDF]
The dynamic modulation of receptor diffusion-trapping at inhibitory synapses is crucial to synaptic transmission, stability, and plasticity. In this review article, we will outline the progression of understanding of receptor diffusion dynamics at the plasma membrane.

Placental growth factor exerts modulatory effects on in vitro activated T cells
Background. Recent studies demonstrated immunosuppressive properties of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A) and identified VEGF-A as a key mediator of tumor-induced immunosuppression.

Inhibitory receptors abound? [PDF]
Receptor biologists have traditionally focused on receptors that are physiologically coupled to inductive responses such as gene expression, cytokinesis, secretion, or entry into the cell cycle. It has generally been assumed that such inductive responses were terminated by ligand decay or receptor desensitization, which lead to cessation of signaling ...
