Paneth cell α-defensin misfolding correlates with dysbiosis and ileitis in Crohn’s disease model mice

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2020
This study provides novel insight into Crohn’s disease where α-defensin misfolding resulting from excessive ER stress in Paneth cells induces dysbiosis and disease progression.

Hygiene hypothesis and innate immunity. evaluating the role of environmental factors and genetic polymorphisms on the expression of receptors of the innate immune system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background In ‘westernised’ countries, the prevalence of childhood asthma and allergy has risen throughout the last few decades. A series of epidemiological studies showed reduced prevalence of asthma and allergy among farmers’ children compared to non ...

Interleukin-1β Signaling in Dendritic Cells Induces Antiviral Interferon Responses

open access: yesmBio, 2018
Induction of interferon beta (IFN-β), IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), and inflammatory responses is critical for control of viral infection. We recently identified an essential linkage of stimulation of the inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and ...

Blockade of IL-33 release and suppression of type 2 innate lymphoid cell responses by helminth secreted products in airway allergy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Helminth parasites such as the nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus strongly inhibit T helper type 2 (Th2) allergy, as well as colitis and autoimmunity. Here, we show that the soluble excretory/secretory products of H.

Immunomodulatory Effects and Protection in Sepsis by the Antibiotic Moxifloxacin

open access: yesAntibiotics
Sepsis is a leading cause of death in Intensive Care Units. Despite its prevalence, sepsis remains insufficiently understood, with no substantial qualitative improvements in its treatment in the past decades.

Immunomodulation of Innate Immune Cells

open access: yes, 2020
Activation of innate immune system underlies both pathological and physiological inflammatory responses and is critical for the host. Regulated innate immune response is thus essential not only for the elimination of invading pathogens but also for the ...

Inflammatory caspases in innate immunity and inflammation.

open access: yes, 2010
Caspases are best known for their role in apoptosis. More recently, they have gained prominence as critical mediators of innate immune responses. The so-called 'inflammatory caspases' include human caspase-1, -4, -5 and -12 and murine caspase-1, -11 and -
