To suppress, or not to suppress? That is repression: controlling intrusive thoughts in addictive behaviour.
Research to understand how individuals cope with intrusive negative or threatening thoughts suggests a variety of different cognitive strategies aimed at thought control. In this review, two of these strategies--thought suppression and repressive coping--are discussed in the context of addictive behaviour. Thought suppression involves conscious, volitional attempts to expel a thought from aware...
متن کاملThe Poxvirus Protein A52R Targets Toll-like Receptor Signaling Complexes to Suppress Host Defense
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are crucial in the innate immune response to pathogens, in that they recognize and respond to pathogen associated molecular patterns, which leads to activation of intracellular signaling pathways and altered gene expression. Vaccinia virus (VV), the poxvirus used to vaccinate against smallpox, encodes proteins that antagonize important components of host antiviral def...
متن کاملNotum deacylates Wnts to suppress signalling activity
Signalling by Wnts is finely balanced to ensure normal development and tissue homeostasis while avoiding diseases such as cancer. This is achieved in part by Notum, a highly conserved secreted feedback antagonist. Notum has been thought to act as a phospholipase, shedding glypicans and associated Wnts from the cell surface. However, this view fails to explain specificity since glypicans bind ma...
متن کاملNeonatal B cells suppress innate toll-like receptor immune responses and modulate alloimmunity.
It has been known for decades that neonates are susceptible to transplant tolerance, but the immunological mechanisms involved remain to be fully elucidated. Recent evidence indicates that the maturation state of DCs responding to an allograft may have a profound impact on whether immunity or tolerance ensues. Given that TLR activation is a key process leading to DC maturation, we hypothesized ...
متن کاملToll-Like Receptor Signalling Is Not Involved in Platelet Response to Streptococcus pneumoniae In Vitro or In Vivo
Streptococcus (S.) pneumoniae strains vary considerably in their ability to cause invasive disease in humans, which is at least in part determined by the capsular serotype. Platelets have been implicated as sentinel cells in the circulation for host defence. One of their utensils for this function is the expression of Toll-like receptors (TLRs). We here aimed to investigate platelet response to...
