Trained immunity: A Yin‐Yang balance
Traditionally, immune memory is regarded as an exclusive hallmark of adaptive immunity. However, a growing body of evidence suggesting that innate immune cells show adaptive characteristics has challenged this dogma. In the past decade, trained immunity,

Therapeutic targeting of trained immunity [PDF]
Immunotherapy is revolutionizing the treatment of diseases in which dysregulated immune responses have an important role. However, most of the immunotherapy strategies currently being developed engage the adaptive immune system. In the past decade, both myeloid (monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells) and lymphoid (natural killer cells and innate ...

Trained immunity in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease [PDF]
Atherosclerosis is characterized by incessant inflammation in the arterial wall in which monocytes and macrophages play a crucial role. During the past few years, it has been reported that cells from the innate immune system can develop a long-lasting proinflammatory phenotype after brief stimulation not only with microbial products but also endogenous

Though SARS-CoV-2 infections are yet to be completely characterised in a host-pathogen interaction context, some of the mechanisms governing the interaction between the novel betacoronavirus and the human host, have been brought to light in satisfactory ...

Trained immunity modulates inflammation-induced fibrosis
Innate immune cells can be trained by some stimuli or pathogen exposures to be metabolically and epigenetically altered such that they have different responses to subsequent exposures.

The role of neutrophils in trained immunity
SummaryThe principle of trained immunity represents innate immune memory due to sustained, mainly epigenetic, changes triggered by endogenous or exogenous stimuli in bone marrow (BM) progenitors (central trained immunity) and their innate immune cell progeny, thereby triggering elevated responsiveness against secondary stimuli.

Advances in immune response to pulmonary infection: Nonspecificity, specificity and memory
The lung immune response consists of various cells involved in both innate and adaptive immune processes. Innate immunity participates in immune resistance in a nonspecific manner, whereas adaptive immunity effectively eliminates pathogens through ...

Trained innate immunity, epigenetics, and food allergy
In recent years the increased incidence of food allergy in Western culture has been associated with environmental factors and an inappropriate immune phenotype.

Trained Immunity Enhances Human Monocyte Function in Aging and Sepsis
Aging plays a critical role in the incidence and severity of infection, with age emerging as an independent predictor of mortality in sepsis. Trained immunity reprograms immunocytes to respond more rapidly and effectively to pathogens and serves as a ...
