Evolution of innate immune systems* [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2005
AbstractInnate immunity is the oldest form of defense and is found to some degree in all species. It predates the adaptive immune system, consisting of antibodies, B cells, T cells, and the major histocompatibility antigens. These are found only in higher vertebrates and have been the focus of the majority of immunological research, particularly in ...

Systems biology of innate immunity [PDF]

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, 2008
Summary:  Systems biology is the comprehensive and quantitative analysis of the interactions between all of the components of biological systems over time. Systems biology involves an iterative cycle, in which emerging biological problems drive the development of new technologies and computational tools.

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 ...

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,

Fresh Insights into Disease Etiology and the Role of Microbial Pathogens. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Pathogens have been implicated in the initiation and/or promotion of systemic sclerosis (scleroderma, SSc); however, no evidence was found to substantiate the direct contribution to this disease in past years.

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 ...

Innate Immune System Activation and Neuroinflammation in Down Syndrome and Neurodegeneration: Therapeutic Targets or Partners?

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021
Innate immune system activation and inflammation are associated with and may contribute to clinical outcomes in people with Down syndrome (DS), neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and normal aging.
