Innate Immune Responses to Influenza Virus Infections in the Upper Respiratory Tract

open access: yesViruses, 2021
The innate immune system is the host’s first line of immune defence against any invading pathogen. To establish an infection in a human host the influenza virus must replicate in epithelial cells of the upper respiratory tract. However, there are several

Innate immune sensors for detecting nucleic acids during infection

open access: yesJournal of Laboratory Medicine, 2022
Innate immune receptors detect nucleic acids, such as viruses, and initiate an immune response by secreting interferon (IFN) and regulating IFN-stimulated genes (ISG).

Engineering physical microenvironments to study innate immune cell biophysics

open access: yesAPL Bioengineering, 2022
Innate immunity forms the core of the human body's defense system against infection, injury, and foreign objects. It aims to maintain homeostasis by promoting inflammation and then initiating tissue repair, but it can also lead to disease when ...
