Main Components of Fish Immunity: An Overview of the Fish Immune System
Fishes, 2023 Cellular immune responses consist of innate and adaptive cell-mediated immune mechanisms, where all leukocyte subpopulations are included. Among these are vital processes such as cell-mediated cytotoxicity and phagocytosis. The main cellular constituents

RNA sensors of the innate immune system and their detection of pathogens
IUBMB Life - A Journal of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2017 The innate immune system plays a critical role in pathogen recognition and initiation of protective immune response through the recognition of pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by its pattern recognition receptors (PRRs).

Systems Biology and Innate Immunity
Journal of Innate Immunity, 2013 The innate immune system is the first line of host defense against invading microorganisms and is essential for maintenance of host health. The innate immune response is largely mediated by soluble host factors—such as complement—and phagocytic leukocytes.

The innate immune system 'puzzle' [PDF]
Nature Immunology, 2006 Detecting pathogen invasion and regulating homeostatic processes are two essential functions of myriad non-Toll-like innate immune proteins.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia – A silent activator of the innate immune system
Nature Reviews Rheumatology, 2019 Asymptomatic hyperuricaemia affects ~20% of the general population in the USA, with variable rates in other countries. Historically, asymptomatic hyperuricaemia was considered a benign laboratory finding with little clinical importance in the absence of ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Planarians (Platyhelminthes)—An Emerging Model Organism for Investigating Innate Immune Mechanisms
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 An organism responds to the invading pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, protozoans, and fungi by engaging innate and adaptive immune system, which functions by activating various signal transduction pathways. As invertebrate organisms (such as sponges,

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Effects of engineered nanoparticles on the innate immune system
Seminars in Immunology, 2017 Engineered nanoparticles (NPs) have broad applications in industry and nanomedicine. When NPs enter the body, interactions with the immune system are unavoidable. The innate immune system, a non-specific first line of defense against potential threats to
