Pathophysiology of Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Innate Immune System [PDF]
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a heterogeneous state of chronic intestinal inflammation with no exact known cause.

CD4+CD25+ TR cells suppress innate immune pathology through cytokine-dependent mechanisms [PDF]
Copyright @ 2003 The Rockefeller University PressCD4+CD25+ regulatory T (TR) cells can inhibit a variety of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, but the precise mechanisms by which they suppress immune responses in vivo remain unresolved.

Bone and the Innate Immune System [PDF]
The immune system and bone are intimately linked with significant physical and functionally related interactions. The innate immune system functions as an immediate response system to initiate protections against local challenges such as pathogens and ...

Interaction between Cannabinoid System and Toll-Like Receptors Controls Inflammation
Since the discovery of the endocannabinoid system consisting of cannabinoid receptors, endogenous ligands, and biosynthetic and metabolizing enzymes, interest has been renewed in investigating the promise of cannabinoids as therapeutic agents.

Physiology and Pathology of Innate Immune Response Against Pathogens [PDF]
Pathogen infections are recognized by the immune system, which consists of two types of responses: an innate immune response and an antigen-specific adaptive immune response.

Memory and Specificity in the Insect Immune System: Current Perspectives and Future Challenges
The immune response of a host to a pathogen is typically described as either innate or adaptive. The innate form of the immune response is conserved across all organisms, including insects.

The immune system as drug target [PDF]
The immune system is perhaps the largest yet most diffuse and distributed somatic system in vertebrates. It plays vital roles in fighting infection and in the homeostatic control of chronic disease.
