'Towards a Conceptual Framework for Innate Immunity' [PDF]

, 2005
Innate immunity now occupies a central role in immunology. However, artificial immune system models have largely been inspired by adaptive not innate immunity.

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

Journal 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.

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

Scientific 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.

Role of metabolic reprogramming in pulmonary innate immunity and Its impact on lung diseases [PDF]

, 2019
Lung innate immunity is the first line of defence against inhaled allergens, pathogens and environmental pollutants. Cellular metabolism plays a key role in innate immunity.

NOD1 mediates interleukin-18 processing in epithelial cells responding to Helicobacter pylori infection in mice

Nature Communications, 2023
The interleukin-1 family members, IL-1β and IL-18, are processed into their biologically active forms by multi-protein complexes, known as inflammasomes. Although the inflammasome pathways that mediate IL-1β processing in myeloid cells have been defined,

Innate immunity against HIV: a priority target for HIV prevention research. [PDF]

, 2010
This review summarizes recent advances and current gaps in understanding of innate immunity to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, and identifies key scientific priorities to enable application of this knowledge to the development of novel ...

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

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

ATP-binding and hydrolysis of human NLRP3

Communications 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.

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

Nature 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 ...

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
