C-type lectin receptors and RIG-I-like receptors: new points on the oncogenomics map
The group of pattern recognition receptors includes families of Toll-like receptors, NOD-like receptors, C-type lectin receptors, and RIG-I-like receptors. They are key sensors for a number of infectious agents, some of which are oncogenic, and they launch an immune response against them, normally promoting their eradication. Inherited variations in genes encoding these receptors and proteins a...
متن کاملHow RIG-I like receptors activate MAVS.
RIG-I and MDA5 are well-conserved cytoplasmic pattern recognition receptors that detect viral RNAs during infection and activate the type I interferon (IFN)-mediated antiviral immune response. While much is known about how these receptors recognize viral RNAs, how they interact with their common signaling adaptor molecule MAVS and activate the downstream signaling pathway had been less clear. P...
متن کاملSnake C-type lectin-like proteins and platelet receptors.
Snake venoms are complex mixtures of biologically active proteins and peptides. Many affect haemostasis by activating or inhibiting coagulant factors or platelets, or by disrupting endothelium. Snake venom components are classified into various families, such as serine proteases, metalloproteinases, C-type lectin-like proteins, disintegrins and phospholipases. Snake venom C-type lectin-like pro...
متن کاملRole of Toll-like receptors, NOD-like receptors and RIG-I-like receptors in endothelial cells and systemic infections.
Bacteraemia and viraemia are characterised by pathogens entering the bloodstream. Endothelial cells are among the first cells coming into contact with the microbes and also some endogenous molecules which are released by tissue damage. As part of the innate immune system, endothelial cells respond to these contacts by producing inflammatory mediators and expressing surface molecules. The initia...
متن کامل[Role of the RIG-I-like receptors in antiviral response].
The innate nonspecific immunity is the first line of defense against viral infection. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs) are two main receptor families detecting viral nucleic acid. So far, three RLR family members were characterized: RIG-I, MDA5 and LGP2. RLR constitute a family of cytoplasmic helicases, which recognized intracellular si...
