DAMPs and Innate Immune Training
The ability to remember a previous encounter with pathogens was long thought to be a key feature of the adaptive immune system enabling the host to mount a faster, more specific and more effective immune response upon the reencounter, reducing the ...

Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns, Pattern Recognition Receptors and Pediatric Sepsis [PDF]
The mortality of septic shock in the pediatric population has improved over the last 2 decades with better supportive care however it still remains unacceptably high. Exaggerated inflammatory responses early in septic shock have been associated with poor outcomes.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Usefulness of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 as a predictive marker of mortality in sepsis
Background Sepsis is one of the most significant causes of mortality in intensive care units. It indicates crosstalk between inflammation and coagulation.

NLRP3: Role in ischemia/reperfusion injuries
NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) is expressed in immune cells, especially in dendritic cells and macrophages and acts as a constituent of the inflammasome.

We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

The role of pathogen-associated molecular patterns and islet-derived danger-associated molecular patterns in longevity of microencapsulated pancreatic islets [PDF]
Immunoisolation of cells by encapsulation in semipermeable membranes has been proposed as a cure for many endocrine diseases where a minute-to-minute regulation of metabolites is a requirement such as in anemia, dwarfism, kidney and liver failure ...

Nonspecific recognition of pathogen-derived general elicitors triggers the first line of plant basal defense, which in turn, preconditions the host towards resistance or susceptibility. To elucidate how basal defense responses influence the onset of Mla (

The presence of β-mannans in feed can produce a futile and chronic immune stimulation in fattening pigs. In this trial, a 1-4-endo-D-β-mannanase was added to the feed (HC) during growth and fattening (0.03% of Hemicell HT) and physical performance and ...

Mycobacterium africanum is associated with patient ethnicity in Ghana [PDF]
Mycobacterium africanum is a member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) and an important cause of human tuberculosis in West Africa that is rarely observed elsewhere.
