Epigenetic regulation of innate immune memory in microglia [PDF]
Abstract Microglia are the tissue-resident macrophages of the CNS. They originate in the yolk sac, colonize the CNS during embryonic development and form a self-sustaining population with limited turnover. A consequence of their relative slow turnover is that microglia can serve as a long-term memory for inflammatory or ...

Pleiotropic Mucosal Innate Immune Memory in the Gastrointestinal Tract. [PDF]
Research in the past fifteen years has established that innate immune cells can develop immune memory, termed trained immunity. Trained innate immune cells exhibit distinct lasting epigenetic and metabolic changes that prime these cells upon repeated ...

Leprosy and Immune System An Insight into the Innate Immune System [PDF]
Innate immunity is a host immune mechanism to defend itself promptly. It includes physical and chemical barriers, cells in the circulation and tissues, several plasma proteins, and immune cells constituting phagocytic cells (monocytes/macrophages and ...

Chitin modulates innate immune responses of keratinocytes. [PDF]
Chitin, after cellulose the second most abundant polysaccharide in nature, is an essential component of exoskeletons of crabs, shrimps and insects and protects these organisms from harsh conditions in their environment.

Trained Immunity: A Memory for Innate Host Defense [PDF]
Immune responses in vertebrates are classically divided into innate and adaptive, with only the latter being able to build up immunological memory. However, although lacking adaptive immune responses, plants and invertebrates are protected against reinfection with pathogens, and invertebrates even display transplant rejection.

Trained Immunity and Local Innate Immune Memory in the Lung [PDF]
Trained innate immunity mediates protection against heterologous infections and is mediated by epigenetic and functional reprogramming of myeloid cells and their progenitors. Now, Yao et al. describe trained immunity induced locally in alveolar macrophages by a viral infection, with IFNγ release from effector CD8+ lymphocytes initiating this process.

BCG has shown the ability to induce protection against unrelated pathogens, which likely depends on an immune mechanism known as innate immune memory or trained immunity.

Microarray expression analysis of genes involved in innate immune memory in peritoneal macrophages
Immunological memory has been believed to be a feature of the adaptive immune system for long period, but recent reports suggest that the innate immune system also exhibits memory-like reaction.

Thy1+ NK [corrected] cells from vaccinia virus-primed mice confer protection against vaccinia virus challenge in the absence of adaptive lymphocytes. [PDF]
While immunological memory has long been considered the province of T- and B-lymphocytes, it has recently been reported that innate cell populations are capable of mediating memory responses. We now show that an innate memory immune response is generated
