Nature Communications, 2022 Pattern-triggered immunity is activated by recognition of microbe-derived structures by host pattern recognition receptors. Here the authors use a genotype-by sequencing approach to show that bacterial translation initiation factor 1 triggers PTI in ...

Recognition of human oncogenic viruses by host pattern recognition receptors
Frontiers in Immunology, 2014 Human oncogenic viruses include Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), human papilloma virus (HPV), human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV-1), Kaposi’s associated sarcoma virus (KSHV), and Merkel cell polyomavirus ...

Pattern recognitions receptors in immunodeficiency disorders [PDF]
European Journal of Pharmacology, 2017 Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) recognize common microbial or host-derived macromolecules and have important roles in early activation and response of the immune system. Initiation of the innate immune response starts with the recognition of microbial structures called pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs).

Pattern recognition receptors in microbial keratitis [PDF]
Eye, 2015 Microbial keratitis is a significant cause of global visual impairment and blindness. Corneal infection can be caused by a wide variety of pathogens, each of which exhibits a range of mechanisms by which the immune system is activated. The complexity of the immune response to corneal infection is only now beginning to be elucidated.

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

Innate Immune Sensors and Gastrointestinal Bacterial Infections
Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2011 The gastrointestinal microbiota is a major source of immune stimulation. The interaction between host pattern-recognition receptors and conserved microbial ligands profoundly influences infection dynamics.

Pattern recognition receptors in antifungal immunity [PDF]
Seminars 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 ...

Frontiers in Immunology, 2015 Natural Killer (NK) cells are a key constituent of the innate immune system, protecting against bacteria, virally infected cells, and cancer. Recognition and protective function against such cells is dictated by activating and inhibitory receptors on ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Asymptomatic infection poses a significant risk for children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Pre‐transplant surveillance computed tomography (CT) is commonly used to identify occult infection, though its diagnostic yield remains uncertain.

Herpes Simplex Virus and Pattern Recognition Receptors: An Arms Race
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Herpes simplex viruses (HSVs) are experts in establishing persistent infection in immune-competent humans, in part by successfully evading immune activation through diverse strategies. Upon HSV infection, host deploys pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)
