Mediterranean mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) are marine bivalve molluscs with high resilience to biotic and abiotic stress. This resilience is one of the reasons why this species is such an interesting model for studying processes such as the immune

Central Role for MyD88 in the Responses of Microglia to Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns [PDF]
Abstract Microglia, the innate immune effector cells of the CNS parenchyma, express TLR that recognize conserved motifs of microorganisms referred to as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMP). All TLRs identified to date, with the exception of TLR3, use a common adaptor protein, MyD88, to transduce activation signals. Recently, we

Suppression of CYP1 members of the AHR response by pathogen-associated molecular patterns [PDF]
AbstractThe aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that triggers a broad response, which includes the regulation of proinflammatory cytokine production by monocytes and macrophages. AHR is negatively regulated by a set of genes that it transcriptionally activates, including the AHR repressor (Ahrr) and the cytochrome

The molecular basis of host specialization in bean pathovars of Pseudomonas syringae [PDF]
Biotrophic phytopathogens are typically limited to their adapted host range. In recent decades, investigations have teased apart the general molecular basis of intraspecific variation for innate immunity of plants, typically involving receptor ...

Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is an uncommon eruption characterized by sterile pustules on an erythematous background, which is usually associated with drugs. AGEP is described as a self-limiting disease with favorable prognosis.

Current and emerging analytical technologies for analyzing chitin-protein binding interactions
Chitin, a small organic molecule commonly found in fungal cell walls and insect exoskeletons, has the ability to elicit an immune response in plants by binding to specific membrane-bound receptors. Understanding how plants detect and fend off deleterious

Enhancing acute inflammatory and sepsis treatment: superiority of membrane receptor blockade
Conditions such as acute pancreatitis, ulcerative colitis, delayed graft function and infections caused by a variety of microorganisms, including gram-positive and gram-negative organisms, increase the risk of sepsis and therefore mortality.

The Plant – Pathogen Interactions
Interaction between plants and their pathogens is complex, involving multifaceted recognition of pathogens by the plants and, on the other hand, subtle evasion from the pathogens.
