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

, 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 ...

Naturally derived cytokine peptides limit virus replication and severe disease during influenza A virus infection

Clinical & Translational Immunology, 2023
Objectives Novel host‐targeted therapeutics could treat severe influenza A virus (IAV) infections, with reduced risk of drug resistance. LAT8881 is a synthetic form of the naturally occurring C‐terminal fragment of human growth hormone.

Innate immunity protein IFITM3 modulates γ-secretase in Alzheimer disease

Nature, 2020
Innate immunity is associated with Alzheimer’s disease1, but the influence of immune activation on the production of amyloid-β is unknown2,3. Here we identify interferon-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) as a γ-secretase modulatory protein, and ...

An ocular Th1 immune response promotes corneal nerve damage independently of the development of corneal epitheliopathy

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2023
Proper sight is not possible without a smooth, transparent cornea, which is highly exposed to environmental threats. The abundant corneal nerves are interspersed with epithelial cells in the anterior corneal surface and are instrumental to corneal ...

Targeting RIP Kinases in Chronic Inflammatory Disease

Biomolecules, 2021
Chronic inflammatory disorders are characterised by aberrant and exaggerated inflammatory immune cell responses. Modes of extrinsic cell death, apoptosis and necroptosis, have now been shown to be potent drivers of deleterious inflammation, and mutations

Periphery and brain, innate and adaptive immunity in Parkinson’s disease

Acta Neuropathologica, 2021
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder where alpha-synuclein plays a central role in the death and dysfunction of neurons, both, in central, as well as in the peripheral nervous system.

Expression and Localization of Paneth Cells and Their α-Defensins in the Small Intestine of Adult Mouse

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
Paneth cells contribute to intestinal innate immunity by sensing bacteria and secreting α-defensin. In Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice, α-defensin termed cryptdin (Crp) in Paneth cells consists of six major isoforms, Crp1 to 6.

Pleiotropic functions of the tumor- and metastasis-suppressing Matrix Metalloproteinase-8 in mammary cancer in MMTV-PyMT transgenic mice [PDF]

, 2015
Matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8; neutrophil collagenase) is an important regulator of innate immunity which has onco-suppressive actions in numerous tumor ...

HIV and innate immunity ? a genomics perspective [PDF]

, 2010
Innate immunity is a theme of increasing interest for HIV research. However, the term is overstretched to cover biological barriers, cellular systems, soluble factors, signaling pathways, and effectors and is inconsistently applied.
