RIG-I: a multifunctional protein beyond a pattern recognition receptor
Protein & Cell, 2017 It was widely known that retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I) functions as a cytosolic pattern recognition receptor that initiates innate antiviral immunity by detecting exogenous viral RNAs.

Feasibility of Applying Helper-Dependent Adenoviral Vectors for Cancer Immunotherapy
Biomedicines, 2014 Adenoviruses (Ads) infect a broad range of tissue types, and derived vectors have been extensively used for gene therapy. Helper-dependent Ad vectors (HDAds), devoid of viral coding sequences, allow for insertion of large or multiple transgenes in a ...

Primary immunodeficiencies of pattern recognition receptors [PDF]
Journal of Internal Medicine, 2012 AbstractPrimary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) are severe defects in the capacity of the host to mount a proper immune response, and are characterized by an increased susceptibility to infections. Although classical immunodeficiencies have been characterized based on broad defects in cell populations (e.g.

Stage-specific sampling by pattern recognition receptors during Candida albicans phagocytosis.
PLoS Pathogens, 2008 Candida albicans is a medically important pathogen, and recognition by innate immune cells is critical for its clearance. Although a number of pattern recognition receptors have been shown to be involved in recognition and phagocytosis of this fungus ...

Feature learning via partial differential equation with applications to face recognition
, 2017 Feature learning is a critical step in pattern recognition, such as image classification. However, most of the existing methods cannot extract features that are discriminative and at the same time invariant under some transforms.

Enhancing crop innate immunity: new promising trends
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 Plants are constantly exposed to potentially pathogenic microbes present in their surrounding environment. Due to the activation of the pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) response that largely relies on accurate detection of pathogen- or microbe-associated

Informative shape representations for human action recognition
, 2006 Shape and kinematics are two important cues in human movement analysis. Due to real difficulties in extracting kinematics from videos accurately, this paper proposes to address the problem of human action recognition by spatiotemporal shape analysis ...

Identifying the Patterns of Pattern Recognition Receptors [PDF]
Immunity, 2018 Intestinal homeostasis requires microbial recognition that results in appropriate responses to commensals and pathogens. In this issue of Immunity, Price et al. (2018) map the in vivo expression of five toll-like receptors (TLR) in intestinal epithelia, revealing distinct spatio-temporal expression patterns that shape responses to TLR ligands.

Plant pattern-recognition receptors
Trends in Immunology, 2014 Plants are constantly exposed to would-be pathogens in their immediate environment. Yet, despite relying on innate immunity only, plants are resistant to most microbes. They employ pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) for sensitive and rapid detection of the potential danger caused by microbes and pests. Plant PRRs are either surface-localized receptor
