TNFa is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that is signaled through type 1 (TNFR1) and type 2 (TNFR2) receptors. TNFR1 normally mediates apoptosis, cell survival, and cytokine secretion, while TNFR2 selectively mediates cell survival and cytokine secretion. But

libtissue - implementing innate immunity [PDF]
In a previous paper the authors argued the case for incorporating ideas from innate immunity into articficial immune systems (AISs) and presented an outline for a conceptual framework for such systems.

Evolution of γ chain cytokines: Mechanisms, methods and applications
The common γ chain family of cytokines and their receptors play fundamental roles in the immune system. Evolutionary studies of γ chain cytokines have elegantly illustrated how the immune system adapts to ever-changing environmental conditions.

The case for absolute ligand discrimination : modeling information processing and decision by immune T cells [PDF]
Some cells have to take decision based on the quality of surroundings ligands, almost irrespective of their quantity, a problem we name "absolute discrimination". An example of absolute discrimination is recognition of not-self by immune T Cells. We show

Evolution of Class I cytokine receptors
Background The Class I cytokine receptors have a wide range of actions, including a major role in the development and function of immune and blood cells. However, the evolution of the genes encoding them remains poorly understood. To address this we have

Cytokine Receptor Endocytosis: New Kinase Activity-Dependent and -Independent Roles of PI3K
Type I and II cytokine receptors are cell surface sensors that bind cytokines in the extracellular environment and initiate intracellular signaling to control processes such as hematopoiesis, immune function, and cellular growth and development.
