Neonatal innate immunity and Toll-like receptor
The innate immune response is the first line of defense against microbial infections. Innate immunity is made up of the surface barrier, cellular immunity and humoral immunity. In newborn, immunologic function and demands are different to adults. Neonatal innate immunity specifically suppresses Th1-type immune responses, and not Th2-type immune responses, which are enhanced. And the impaired re...
متن کاملToll-like Receptors and Innate Immunity
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are the best-characterized membrane-bound receptors in innate immune cells, including macrophages and dendritic cells. Upon recognition of specific ligands originating from pathogenand modified selfderived molecules, TLRs trigger intracellular signaling cascades that involve various adaptor proteins and enzymes, resulting in the generation of proinflammatory and antim...
متن کاملToll-like receptors in innate immunity.
Functional characterization of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) has established that innate immunity is a skillful system that detects invasion of microbial pathogens. Recognition of microbial components by TLRs initiates signal transduction pathways, which triggers expression of genes. These gene products control innate immune responses and further instruct development of antigen-specific acquired i...
متن کاملCC chemokine receptor 4 modulates Toll-like receptor 9-mediated innate immunity and signaling.
The present study addressed the modulatory role of CC chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) in Toll-like receptor (TLR) 9-mediated innate immunity and explored the underlying molecular mechanisms. Our results demonstrated that CCR4-deficient mice were resistant to both septic peritonitis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) and CpG DNA/D-galactosamine-induced shock. In bone marrow-derived macroph...
متن کاملToll-like receptors in innate immunity: role of bacterial endotoxin and toll-like receptor 4 in endometrium and endometriosis.
Macrophages, dendritic cells, and Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are integral components of the innate immune system. This rapidly reactive system responds immediately to infectious or other non-self agents, thereby inducing an inflammatory response to protect the host until the activation of the slower adaptive immune system. The fundamentals of the innate immune system, functional characteristics...
