When does hepatitis B virus meet long-stranded noncoding RNAs?
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in humans and its associated diseases are long-standing problems. HBV can produce a large number of non-self-molecules during its life cycle, which acts as targets for innate immune recognition and initiation.

Role of Translocation of Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns in Sepsis [PDF]
<i>Background/Aim:</i> Unlike animals, the incidence of bacterial translocation and its clinical significance remain to be determined in humans, which may be due to the lack of accurate methods to confirm and monitor bacterial translocation. The literature on the consequences of novel insights of bacterial translocation was reviewed.

Targeting Cytokines, Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns, and Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns in Sepsis via Blood Purification [PDF]
Sepsis is characterized by a dysregulated immune response to infections that causes life-threatening organ dysfunction and even death. When infections occur, bacterial cell wall components (endotoxin or lipopolysaccharide), known as pathogen-associated molecular patterns, bind to pattern recognition receptors, such as toll-like receptors, to initiate ...

Inflammaging as the basis of age-associated diseases
Aging is one of the most complex biological phenomena that affects all human physiological systems, including the immune system. Immunosenescence is understood as structural and functional changes in both adaptive and innate immunity systems.

Damage- and Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns and Alarmins: Keys to Sepsis? [PDF]
The concept that sepsis is the result of an uncontrolled inflammatory response of the host’s innate immune system towards invading pathogens has recently been challenged. Evidence is accumulating that, in addition, host-derived alarm molecules are released during sepsis- and trauma-associated cell death, thus triggering the host’s immune response.

Identification and Biological Activity of Synthetic Macrophage Inducible C-Type Lectin Ligands
The macrophage inducible C-type lectin (Mincle) is a pattern recognition receptor able to recognize both damage-associated and pathogen-associated molecular patterns, and in this respect, there has been much interest in determining the scope of ligands ...

Do Mast Cells Contribute to the Antifungal Host Defense?
The fungal kingdom includes a group of microorganisms that are widely distributed in the environment, and therefore the exposure to them is almost constant.
