Cellular Immunity-Pathogen Interactions in Infectious Diseases
The interactions among host immunity, pathogens, and environment are ever-going process of disease and health. In nature, there is an ongoing equilibrium between infectious agents and their susceptible host organisms. While challenge of immune-competent individuals to low pathogenic strains usually results in elimination of the infectious agent, the other host-pathogen matches generally produce...
متن کاملInterferon Lambda: Modulating Immunity in Infectious Diseases
Interferon lambdas (IFN-λs; IFNL1-4) modulate immunity in the context of infections and autoimmune diseases, through a network of induced genes. IFN-λs act by binding to the heterodimeric IFN-λ receptor (IFNLR), activating a STAT phosphorylation-dependent signaling cascade. Thereby hundreds of IFN-stimulated genes are induced, which modulate various immune functions via complex forward and feed...

متن کاملMacrophage-pathogen interactions in infectious diseases: new therapeutic insights from the zebrafish host model
Studying macrophage biology in the context of a whole living organism provides unique possibilities to understand the contribution of this extremely dynamic cell subset in the reaction to infections, and has revealed the relevance of cellular and molecular processes that are fundamental to the cell-mediated innate immune response. In particular, various recently established zebrafish infectious...
متن کاملKIR/HLA Interactions and Pathogen Immunity
The innate immune system is the first line of defence in response to pathogen infection. Natural killer (NK) cells perform a vital role in this response with the ability to directly kill infected cells, produce cytokines, and cross-talk with the adaptive immune system. These effector functions are dependent on activation of NK cells which is determined by surface receptor interactions with liga...
