celiac disease (cd) is now considered a multiple and systemic immune-mediate disorder triggered by the ingestion of wheat gluten and related proteins. following the discovery of a link between gluten and cd, it was demonstrated that gliadin, one of the two principal protein groups comprising gluten, plays a key role in cd. it has since become clear that the different and crucial roles of gliadi...

Background: Toll like receptors (TLRs) are a major family of innate immune systems which recognize specific pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPS)in bacterial, fungi, virus and parasites. Human TLRs comprise a large family of 10 different type proteins that are expressed on various immune cells. Among these receptors, TLR1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 10 were expressed on the cell surface. TLR2 form...

objective(s): this study aimed to find the effects of silver nanoparticles (ag-nps) (40 nm) on skin wound healing in mice mus musculus when innate immune system has been suppressed.materials and methods: a group of 50 balb/c mice of about 8 weeks (weighting 24.2±3.0 g) were randomly divided into two groups: ag-nps and control group, each with 25 mice. once a day at the same time, a volume of 50...

Natural killer (NK) cells are effector cells of the innate immune system that exert direct cytotoxic functions. Ubiquitously-expressed toll-like receptors (TLRs) have been recognized as one of the major components promoting dendritic cell (DC) maturation, which may induce polarized immune responses beneficial to cancer immunotherapy. TLR-activated NK cells and DCs are prerequisite for robust ac...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small preserved non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally by targeting the 3' UTR of mRNAs for translational repression or degradation. The rising evidence has established the significant role of miRNAs within the regulation of immune system and the prevention of autoimmunity. MiR-146a has obtained an importance as a modulator of differ...

micrornas (mirnas) are small preserved non-coding rna molecules that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally by targeting the 3' utr of mrnas for translational repression or degradation. the rising evidence has established the significant role of mirnas within the regulation of immune system and the prevention of autoimmunity. mir-146a has obtained an importance as a modulator of d...

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...

Background: Endometriosis is a complex disease that profoundly affects the quality of life in many women. This disease affects roughly one in ten women of reproductive age. Endometriosis induces a variable amount of inflammatory reaction in pelvic environment. An active immune system needs to recognize these inflammatory agents. Rapid innate immune system defenses against infections involve the...

auto-inflammatory syndromes are a new group of distinct hereditable disorders characterized by episodes of seemingly unprovoked inflammation (most commonly in skin, joints, gut, and eye), the absence of a high titer of auto-antibodies or auto-reactive t cells, and an inborn error of innate immunity. a narrative literature review was carried out of studies related to auto-inflammatory syndromes ...
