Innate Immunity Plays a Key Role in Leishmania Infection: Implications for Vaccine Design
Neutrophils are part of the first line of immune response and are essential for resistance against a variety of pathogens. They professionally mediate direct killing of pathogens, recruit other phagocytes by specific chemokines, produce cytokines and interact with different immune cells to shape the adaptive response. Leishmania as an obligatory intracellular parasite has evolved to benefit thi...
متن کاملRole of innate immunity in respiratory mycoplasma infection.
Mycoplasmas are unique among respiratory pathogens. They possess very small genomes, lack cell walls and are strictly dependent on the host for survival. These pathogens have developed the ability to quickly adapt to the host environment through attachment to target cells within the host. Mycoplasmas have been identified as commensal microbial flora of healthy persons yet, infection of the uppe...
متن کاملInnate immunity to virus infection.
The innate immune system is essential for the initial detection of invading viruses and subsequent activation of adaptive immunity. Three classes of receptors, designated retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs), Toll-like receptors (TLRs), and nucleotide oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptors (NLRs), sense viral components, such as double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), single-s...
متن کاملNeonatal 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 کاملThe Role of Zataria Multiflora Essence (Iranian herb) on Innate Immunity of Animal Model
Background: Herbal medicines have been used since ancient times for treatment of a range of diseases and have represented stimulatory effects on the function of innate immunity. Objective: To evaluate the effects of Zataria multiflora (Z. multiflora) on the function of innate immunity including phagocytic activity and TNF-α secretion in animal model. Methods: Eight BALB/c mice were divided int...
