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

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.

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

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.

Chromatin-Associated Molecular Patterns (CAMPs) in sepsis
Several molecular patterns have been identified that recognize pattern recognition receptors. Pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are commonly used terminologies to classify molecules ...

Immunogenic cell death: The cornerstone of oncolytic viro-immunotherapy
According to the World Health Organization, cancer is one of the leading global health concerns, causing nearly 10 million deaths in 2020. While classical chemotherapeutics produce strong cytotoxicity on cancer cells, they carry limitations of drug ...

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

Pathogen-Associated Molecular Pattern-Triggered Immunity: Veni, Vidi…?
For many years, plant pathology was divided into two schools of thought. It was clear that purified molecules or crude extracts from microbes or plants (referred to as general elicitors) could induce activation of general defense responses ([Boller, 1995][1]).
