LUBAC prevents lethal dermatitis by inhibiting cell death induced by TNF, TRAIL and CD95L

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
TNF mediated inflammation is critical in autoimmune mediated pathology, however many patients are refractory to current anti-TNF therapeutics. Here the authors show induction of several death ligands, in addition to TNF is sufficient to cause fatal ...

Heterogeneity in Fibroblast Proliferation and Survival in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2014
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common form of interstitial lung disease characterized by the persistence of activated myofibroblasts resulting in excessive deposition of extracellular matrix proteins and profound tissue remodeling ...

Recognition of Pep-13/25 MAMPs of Phytophthora localizes to an RLK locus in Solanum microdontum

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) in plants is mediated by cell surface-localized pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) upon perception of microbe-associated molecular pattern (MAMPs). MAMPs are conserved molecules across microbe species, or even kingdoms,

Plant pattern-recognition receptors

open access: yesTrends 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

Bringing Plant Immunity to Light: A Genetically Encoded, Bioluminescent Reporter of Pattern-Triggered Immunity in Nicotiana benthamiana

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2023
Plants rely on innate immune systems to defend against a wide variety of biotic attackers. Key components of innate immunity include cell-surface pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs), which recognize pest- and pathogen-associated molecular patterns ...

Pattern recognition receptors in antifungal immunity [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Immunopathology, 2014
Receptors of the innate immune system are the first line of defence against infection, being able to recognise and initiate an inflammatory response to invading microorganisms. The Toll-like (TLR), NOD-like (NLR), RIG-I-like (RLR) and C-type lectin-like receptors (CLR) are four receptor families that contribute to the recognition of a vast range of ...

Lectin receptor kinases in plant innate immunity

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2013
A key feature of innate immunity is the ability to recognize and respond to potential pathogens in a highly sensitive and specific manner. In plants, the first layer of defense is induced after recognition by pattern recognition receptors of microbe ...

Activation of the pattern recognition receptor NOD1 augments colon cancer metastasis

open access: yesProtein & Cell, 2020
While emerging data suggest nucleotide oligomerization domain receptor 1 (NOD1), a cytoplasmic pattern recognition receptor, may play an important and complementary role in the immune response to bacterial infection, its role in cancer metastasis is ...

Evolutionary trajectory of pattern recognition receptors in plants

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Abstract Cell-surface receptors play pivotal roles in many biological processes, including immunity, development, and reproduction, across diverse organisms. How cell-surface receptors evolve to become specialised in different biological processes remains elusive.

DM9 Domain Containing Protein Functions As a Pattern Recognition Receptor with Broad Microbial Recognition Spectrum

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
DM9 domain was first identified in Drosophila melanogaster, and it was subsequently found to integrate with or without other protein domains across a wide range of invertebrates and vertebrates.
