The Role of the Immune System in the Pathophysiology of Essential Hypertension

open access: yesJournal of Preventive, Diagnostic and Treatment Strategies in Medicine, 2022
Hypertension (HTN) is a critical worldwide health issue and an imperative risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease and kidney disease. There are many crevices in our knowledge about the pathophysiology of HTN.

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

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.

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

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.

Aging of the innate immune system [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Immunology, 2010
The innate immune system is composed of a network of cells including neutrophils, NK and NKT cells, monocytes/macrophages, and dendritic cells that mediate the earliest interactions with pathogens. Age-associated defects are observed in the activation of all of these cell types, linked to compromised signal transduction pathways including the Toll-like

Immune-Endocrine Interactions in the Fish Gonad during Infection: An Open Door to Vertical Transmission

open access: yesFishes, 2018
The interaction between the immune and endocrine systems has long been recognized in vertebrates. In fish, it is known that the prevalence and intensity of such infections are higher in males than in females and probably related to sex steroid hormone ...

The Role of the Innate Immune System in ALS [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2012
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal, adult-onset neurodegenerative disease that is characterized by the death of upper and lower motor neurons. Recent studies have made it clear that although motor neurons are the primary targets of the degenerative process, other cell types play key roles in the death of motor neurons.

Innate and Adaptive Immune Responses Against Microsporidia Infection in Mammals

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Microsporidia are obligate intracellular and eukaryotic pathogens that can infect immunocompromised and immunocompetent mammals, including humans. Both innate and adaptive immune systems play important roles against microsporidian infection.
