Pattern recognition receptors in health and diseases [PDF]
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are a class of receptors that can directly recognize the specific molecular structures on the surface of pathogens, apoptotic host cells, and damaged senescent cells.

"Open Sesame" to the complexity of pattern recognition receptors of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in cancer [PDF]
Pattern recognition receptors are primitive sensors that arouse a preconfigured immune response to broad stimuli, including nonself pathogen-associated and autologous damage-associated molecular pattern molecules.

Pattern recognition receptors in Crustacea: immunological roles under environmental stress [PDF]
Innate immunity is the first line of defense against infections and the only known available strategy for invertebrates. Crustaceans, being mostly aquatic invertebrates, are constantly exposed to potential pathogens in the surrounding water. Their immune

Inhibitory pattern recognition receptors. [PDF]
Pathogen- and damage-associated molecular patterns are sensed by the immune system’s pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) upon contact with a microbe or damaged tissue. In situations such as contact with commensals or during physiological cell death, the immune system should not respond to these patterns.

Identifying the Patterns of Pattern Recognition Receptors [PDF]
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.

Anti-Viral Pattern Recognition Receptors as Therapeutic Targets
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) play a central role in the inflammation that ensues following microbial infection by their recognition of molecular patterns present in invading microorganisms but also following tissue damage by recognising molecules

Pattern recognition receptors as a double-edged sword in cancer
The problem of cancer remains one of the most immense challenges to current biomedical research. Affecting populations in all countries and all regions, this disease is responsible for millions of deaths annually (1). Evasion of the immune system is an ominous feature of cancers, which often leads to tumor outgrowth, epithelial–mesenchymal transition ...

Immunity is based on self/nonself discrimination. In vertebrates, two major systems, innate and adaptive immune systems, constitute host defense against invading microbes. Adaptive immunity is characterized by specific immune responses through B- or T-cell antigen receptors that are generated by somatic recombination, whereas nonspecific responses to ...
