Intracellular immunity: Finding the enemy within--How cells recognize and respond to intracellular pathogens. J. Leukocyte Biol. 2014, 96, 233-244. [CrossRef] [PubMed]Tam, J.C.; Jacques, D.A. Intracellular immunity: Finding the enemy within--How cells recognize and respond to intracellular ...
Explain the relationship between macrophages and neutrophils in regards to migrating to and then fighting antigenic materials in infected tissues. What role does MHC play in your immune response? What role do normal microbiota play in protecting the GI tract from colonization by pathogens? How ...
like Salmonella, find their way through a complex gut system where they are vastly outnumbered by good microbes and immune cells. Still, the pathogens navigate to find vulnerable entry points in the gut that would allow them to invade and infect the body. ...
How does the immune system protect the body from disease? Today, we refer to the system of cellular strategies that our bodies use to defend themselves from infection and disease as our immune system. Our immune system protects us from many different kinds of microbial foreign invaders, including...
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the vast differences in approaches to the control and containment of coronavirus across the world and has demonstrated the varied success of such approaches in minimizing the transmission of coronavirus. Whil
Secretory IgA produced by lamina propria B cells protects against invasion of both commensal organisms and pathogens. TLR signalling by IECs leads to the production of cytokines such as a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL), which induce class switching to IgA2, a protease-resistant, T cell-inde...
functions. It targets an especially fearsome group of pathogens belonging to the genusEnterobacter, which the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has identified as a primary driver in an accelerating global crisis: bacterial infections that increasingly do not respond to conve...
