Role of innate immunity in adaptive response of skin
proaches to understand psoriasis are rapidly converging. Psoriasis is a common inherited disease that has been described for 2000 years, and affects 2–3% of the world-wide population. Immunologists, cell biologists, and molecular geneticists are becoming increasingly preoccupied with the cellular and molecular events that produce the commotion in the epidermis that results in a psoriatic plaque...
متن کاملRosacea as a disease of cathelicidins and skin innate immunity.
Rosacea is a common and chronic inflammatory skin disease most frequently seen in groups of genetically related individuals. Although the symptoms of rosacea are heterogeneous, they are all related by the presence of characteristic facial or ocular inflammation involving both the vascular and tissue stroma. Until recently, the pathophysiology of this disease was limited to descriptions of a wid...
متن کاملInnate immunity in the lungs.
Innate immunity is a primordial system that has a primary role in lung antimicrobial defenses. Recent advances in understanding the recognition systems by which cells of the innate immune system recognize and respond to microbial products have revolutionized the understanding of host defenses in the lungs and other tissues. The innate immune system includes lung leukocytes and also epithelial c...
متن کاملInnate immunity
From the discovery of antibodies in the late nineteenth century until very recently, the focus of most research in immunology has been the so-called adaptive immune response. Adaptive immune responses are highly specific for a given microorganism and it is the T and B lymphocytes of the adaptive immune response, and the antibodies produced by the B lymphocytes, that are responsible for lasting ...
متن کاملMitochondria in innate immunity.
Mitochondria are cellular organelles involved in host-cell metabolic processes and the control of programmed cell death. A direct link between mitochondria and innate immune signalling was first highlighted with the identification of MAVS-a crucial adaptor for RIGI-like receptor signalling-as a mitochondria-anchored protein. Recently, other innate immune molecules, such as NLRX1, TRAF6, NLRP3 a...
