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 ...

Innate Immunity and Neuroinflammation [PDF]
Mediators of Inflammation, 2013 Inflammation of central nervous system (CNS) is usually associated with trauma and infection. Neuroinflammation occurs in close relation to trauma, infection, and neurodegenerative diseases. Low-level neuroinflammation is considered to have beneficial effects whereas chronic neuroinflammation can be harmful.

The Epitranscriptome and Innate Immunity [PDF]
PLOS Genetics, 2015 Our knowledge of the variety and abundances of RNA base modifications is rapidly increasing. Modified bases have critical roles in tRNAs, rRNAs, translation, splicing, RNA interference, and other RNA processes, and are now increasingly detected in all types of transcripts.

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.

Aging and Innate Immunity [PDF]
Immunity, 2006 Adaptive immunity undergoes severe deterioration with age and represents the main problem in the elderly. However, evidence accumulated over the last decade supports the hypothesis that aging also has a profound impact on innate immunity, which in turn markedly impacts the health and longevity of older people.

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

Western lifestyle linked to maladaptive trained immunity
eLifeTrained immunity (TI) refers to a state of innate immune cells that, after encountering an initial stimulus and undergoing epigenetic reprogramming and metabolic changes, allows them to respond more effectively to a subsequent challenge.

Metabolites, 2020 Changes in modern dietary habits such as consumption of Western-type diets affect physiology on several levels, including metabolism and inflammation. It is currently unclear whether changes in systemic metabolism due to dietary interventions are long ...
