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).

ADHESION OF PATHOGENIC BACTERIA TO POLYSTYRENE, SKIN AND GUT MUCUS OF GILTHEAD SEABREAM, INFECTIOUS CAPACITY AND ANTIBIOTICS SUSCEPTIBILITY

open access: yesBoletim do Instituto de Pesca, 2019
Linking proprieties of adhesion, infectious capacities and antibiotic resistance of pathogen bacteria could help to treat fish diseases. Adhesions of ten fish pathogenic bacteria were tested in microtiter plates vacant, coated with skin or gut mucus ...

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 ...

Neuro-immune communication in C. elegans defense against pathogen infection

open access: yesCurrent Research in Immunology, 2021
The innate immune system is a complex collection of physical barriers and physiological defense responses to internal and external environmental assaults. Recent studies in the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans have highlighted how the nervous system

Chronic wounds alter the proteome profile in skin mucus of farmed gilthead seabream

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Background Skin and its mucus are known to be the first barrier of defence against any external stressors. In fish, skin wounds frequently appear as a result of intensive culture and also some diseases have skin ulcers as external clinical signs. However,

Mercury and its toxic effects on fish

open access: yesAIMS Environmental Science, 2017
Mercury (Hg) and its derivative compounds have been parts of widespread pollutants of the aquatic environment. Since Hg is absorbed by fish and passed up the food chain to other fish-eating species, it does not only affect aquatic ecosystems but also ...
