Evolution of Vertebrate Immunity
All multicellular organisms protect themselves against pathogens using sophisticated immune defenses. Functionally interconnected humoral and cellular facilities maintain immune homeostasis in the absence of overt infection and regulate the initiation and termination of immune responses directed against pathogens. Immune responses of invertebrates, such as flies, are innate and usually stereoty...
متن کاملEvolution of heat shock protein and immunity.
Heat shock proteins (hsps) are among the most abundant intracellular proteins. Their synthesis is rapidly up-regulated by various 'stressors' including temperature, glucose deprivation, infection and cancer. Certain hsps are able to: (i). associate and chaperone a large variety of cellular peptides; (ii). be efficiently internalized by antigen presenting cells (APC) through receptor-mediated en...
متن کاملAntibodies testing, Immunity and immunity passport in Covid-19
The global outbreak of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) has affected most countries in the world. Our knowledge of diagnostic tests for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is evolving, and it is important to have a clear understanding of the nature of the tests and the interpretation of their findings. In this paper, the purpose is to interpret the results of two typ...
متن کاملEvolution of immunity: no development without risk.
Signal transduction by cell surface receptors in the context of heterogeneous and variable cellular environments plays a pivotal role in regulating many biological processes, including development, activation, and homeostasis of the immune system. In some receptors, extracellular ligand-binding and intracellular signaling domains are located on the same protein chain (single-chain receptors), w...
متن کاملChanging Views of the Evolution of Immunity
lineage-specific properties among expanded sea urchin TLRs. Their findings indicate that: (1) some antigen binding sites may be coevolving with variable ligands, (2) TLR subfamilies are utilized differently between larval and adult coelomocytes, and (3) sea urchin TLRs most likely represent immune surveillance molecules. Satake and Sekiguchi (2012) review the evolution and functional diversific...
