Innate Immune System and Preeclampsia
Normal pregnancy is considered as a Th2 type immunological state that favors an immune-tolerance environment in order to prevent fetal rejection. Preeclampsia (PE) has been classically described as a Th1/Th2 imbalance; however, the Th1/Th2 paradigm has proven insufficient to fully explain the functional and molecular changes observed during normal/pathological pregnancies. Recent studies have e...
متن کاملThe innate immune system
The innate immune system ; is an important subsystem of the overall immune response system that comprises the cells and mechanisms that defend the host from infection by other organisms. The cells of the innate system recognize and respond to pathogens in a generic way, but, unlike the adaptive immune system, the system does not confer long-lasting or protective immunity to the host. Innate imm...
متن کاملModelling the Innate Immune System
The Human Immune System (HIS) is a complex network composed of specialized cells, tissues, and organs that is responsible for protecting the organism against diseases caused by distinct pathogenic agents, such as viruses, bacteria and other parasites. The first line of defence against pathogenic agents consists of physical barriers of skin and the mucous membranes. If the pathogenic agents brea...
متن کاملFPRs: linking innate immune system and fibrosis
Fibrosis is a deregulated and uncontrolled repair process that recapitulates features of embryonic development and normal wound healing. The inappropriate repair by connective tissue, characterized by an excessive deposition of collagen and other extracellular matrix components, is now known as an important feature of many chronic diseases, including myocardial infarction, glomerulosclerosis, i...
متن کاملCNS Remyelination and the Innate Immune System
A misguided inflammatory response is frequently implicated in myelin damage. Particularly prominent among myelin diseases, multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune condition, with immune-mediated damage central to its etiology. Nevertheless, a robust inflammatory response is also essential for the efficient regeneration of myelin sheaths after such injury. Here, we discuss the functions of infl...
