Fish Granzyme A Shows a Greater Role Than Granzyme B in Fish Innate Cell-Mediated Cytotoxicity

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Granzymes (Gzm) are serine proteases, contained into the secretory granules of cytotoxic cells, responsible for the cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CMC) against tumor cells and intracellular pathogens such as virus and bacteria.

Host Innate Immunity Against Hepatitis Viruses and Viral Immune Evasion

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Hepatitis viruses are primary causative agents of hepatitis and represent a major source of public health problems in the world. The host innate immune system forms the first line of defense against hepatitis viruses.

Chitin modulates innate immune responses of keratinocytes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
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.

Fish Peroxiredoxins and Their Role in Immunity

open access: yesBiology, 2015
Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are a family of antioxidant enzymes that protect cells from oxidative damage. In addition, Prxs may act as modulators of inflammation, protect against cell death and tumour progression, and facilitate tissue repair after damage. The

The Evasion of Antiviral Innate Immunity by Chicken DNA Viruses

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The innate immune system constitutes the first line of host defense. Viruses have evolved multiple mechanisms to escape host immune surveillance, which has been explored extensively for human DNA viruses. There is growing evidence showing the interaction

System of innate immunity in plants [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology, 2011
The review deals with the mechanisms of innate immunity in plants with a focus on families of pattern-recognition receptors and regard for recent data on complete sequencing of the genomes of several plant species. Plants utilize several families of such receptors, both membrane-bound and cytoplasmic ones, which contain conservative leucine-rich ...

Effects of the Dietary Tryptophan and Aspartate on the Immune Response of Meagre (Argyrosomus regius) after Stress

open access: yesFishes, 2018
Stress is one of the main problems of farmed fish, where it has been seen to result in a variety of disorders and negative effects. It is considered very important to minimize such effects and one option is the use of dietary additives.

Getting on in Old Age: How the Gut Microbiota Interferes With Brain Innate Immunity

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021
The immune system is crucial for defending against various invaders, such as pathogens, cancer cells or misfolded proteins. With increasing age, the diminishing immune response, known as immunosenescence, becomes evident.
