Cathelicidins and innate defense against invasive bacterial infection.
Cathelicidins are small cationic peptides that possess broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. These gene-encoded 'natural antibiotics' are produced by several mammalian species on epithelial surfaces and within the granules of phagocytic cells. Since their discovery over a decade ago, cathelicidins have been speculated to function within the innate immune system, contributing to a first line of...
متن کاملTranscript analysis of some defense genes of tomato in response to host and non-host bacterial pathogens
The transcript levels of six defense genes including pathogenesis-related gene 1 (PR-1), pathogenesis-related gene 2 (PR-2), pathogenesis-related gene 5 (PR-5), lipoxygenase (LOX), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) and catalase (CAT) were investigated in tomato plants inoculated with Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli as a non-host pathogen and X. euvesicatoria as a host pathogen. Activation o...
متن کاملRegulation by innate immune T lymphocytes in the host defense against pulmonary infection with Cryptococcus neoformans.
Recently, innate immune lymphocytes, such as natural killer (NK) T cells and gamma/delta antigen receptor-bearing T (gamma delta T) cells, have garnered much attention, and their biological significance in the tumor immunity, allergic diseases and infectious diseases is extensively exploited. We have addressed the role of these cells in the host defense using a mouse model of pulmonary infectio...
متن کاملEpigenetic Modifications of Host Genes Induced by Bacterial Infection
Introduction: Epigenetic mechanisms regulate expression of the genome to generate various cell types during development or coordinate cellular responses to external stimulus. While epigenetics is of fundamental importance in eukaryotes, it plays a different role in bacteria. This article uncovers the most important recent data on how bacteria can alter epigenetic marks and can also contribute t...
متن کاملBacterial Immunity and Host Defense
001 Abstract Microbes are the key players for deteriorating the host defense. They enter inside the host system, colonize the host cells, evade the host immunity and ultimately leads to tissue injury and ultimately disease. But the body cells are having strong immune system to combat with these aliens. There are two basic types of immune responses in body for bacterial degradation. Immune respo...
