Hygiene hypothesis and innate immunity. evaluating the role of environmental factors and genetic polymorphisms on the expression of receptors of the innate immune system [PDF]
, 2009 Background In ‘westernised’ countries, the prevalence of childhood asthma and allergy has risen throughout the last few decades. A series of epidemiological studies showed reduced prevalence of asthma and allergy among farmers’ children compared to non ...

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 The immune system is composed of two subsystems—the innate immune system and the adaptive immune system. The innate immune system is the first to respond to pathogens and does not retain memory of previous responses.

Determinants of innate immune responses to mycobacteria [PDF]
, 2012 Includes bibliographical references.Innate cells such as macrophages, monocytes, myeloid dendritic cells and granulocytes recognise mycobacteria and initiate immune responses such as phagocytosis, cytokine production and expression of maturation markers.

Virulence, 2021 Appropriate clearance of dead cells generated by apoptosis is critical to the development of multicellular organisms and tissue homeostasis. In mammals, the removal of apoptotic cell is mediated by polarized monocyte/macrophage populations of the innate ...

Marginal zone B cells: virtues of innate-like antibody-producing lymphocytes [PDF]
, 2013 Protective responses to microorganisms involve the nonspecific but rapid defence mechanisms of the innate immune system, followed by the specific but slow defence mechanisms of the adaptive immune system. Located as sentinels at the interface between the

Immunomodulation of Innate Immune Cells
, 2020 Activation of innate immune system underlies both pathological and physiological inflammatory responses and is critical for the host. Regulated innate immune response is thus essential not only for the elimination of invading pathogens but also for the ...

Interaction between Cannabinoid System and Toll-Like Receptors Controls Inflammation
Mediators of Inflammation, 2016 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.
