Activated Carbon for Sepsis Prevention and Intervention: A Modern Way of Utilizing Old Therapies
(1) Background: Uncontrolled inflammation often contributes to life-threatening sepsis sequela such as multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), and is accompanied by abnormal levels of pathological and damage-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs & DAMPs)

Mechanisms of Immunothrombosis by SARS-CoV-2
SARS-CoV-2 contains certain molecules that are related to the presence of immunothrombosis. Here, we review the pathogen and damage-associated molecular patterns.

The Role of C-Type Lectin Receptor Signaling in the Intestinal Microbiota-Inflammation-Cancer Axis
As a subset of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), C-type lectin-like receptors (CLRs) are mainly expressed by myeloid cells as both transmembrane and soluble forms.

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.

Kawasaki Disease Following Severe Sunburn Injury
Background: Although an etiology of Kawasaki disease (KD) is unknown, an aberrant innate immune system in predisposed individuals has been proposed to play a key role in the development of KD vasculitis.

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.

Activation and regulation mechanisms of NOD-like receptors based on structural biology
Innate immunity is a primary defense system against microbial infections. Innate immune pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) play pivotal roles in detection of invading pathogens.

State of the Art of Innate Immunity—An Overview
The innate immune system is the first line of defense against bacterial and viral infections and sterile inflammation through the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) as well as danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) by ...
