Inflammasome‐induced extracellular vesicles harbour distinct RNA signatures and alter bystander macrophage responses

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2021
Infectious organisms and damage of cells can activate inflammasomes, which mediate tissue inflammation and adaptive immunity. These mechanisms evolved to curb the spread of microbes and to induce repair of the damaged tissue.

Innate Immunity

open access: yes, 2022
AbstractResearch on the innate immunity has accelerated over the last decades. The main reason for this has been the discovery of receptors recognizing danger molecules from pathogens. This has been facilitated through genome and transcriptome sequencing of different fish species.

Verloren negatively regulates the expression of IMD pathway dependent antimicrobial peptides in Drosophila

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Drosophila immune deficiency (IMD) pathway is similar to the human tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) signaling pathway and is preferentially activated by Gram-negative bacterial infection.

ATP-binding and hydrolysis of human NLRP3

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
Analysis of the inflammasome-forming protein NLRP3 provides insights into the function of conserved residues in the ATP-binding site of NLRP3 and the correlation of ATP hydrolysis with inflammasome activation.

libtissue - implementing innate immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In a previous paper the authors argued the case for incorporating ideas from innate immunity into articficial immune systems (AISs) and presented an outline for a conceptual framework for such systems.

The evolution of resistance through costly acquired immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We examine the evolutionary dynamics of resistance to parasites through acquired immunity. Resistance can be achieved through the innate mechanisms of avoidance of infection and reduced pathogenicity once infected, through recovery from infection and ...

In vivo detection of lamellocytes in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Drosophila has recently become a powerful model organism for studies of innate immunity. The cellular elements of innate immunity in Drosophila, the hemocytes, have been characterized by morphological criteria, molecular markers, and cell-type-specific ...

A functional DC cross talk promotes human ILC homeostasis in humanized mice

open access: yesBlood Advances, 2017
: Humanized mice harboring human hematopoietic systems offer a valuable small-animal model to assess human immune responses to infection, inflammation, and cancer.

The long non-coding RNA LUCAT1 is a negative feedback regulator of interferon responses in humans

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
lncRNAs are transcriptional regulators, but little is known of them functioning as negative feedback regulators of inflammation in humans. Here, the authors show that the human lncRNA LUCAT1 sequesters STAT1 to limit JAK/STAT signaling and the ...

Integrative Genomics Reveals the Genetics and Evolution of the Honey Bee’s Social Immune System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Social organisms combat pathogens through individual innate immune responses or through social immunity—behaviors among individuals that limit pathogen transmission within groups.
