In this Review, we describe the immune niches within the brain, the contribution of professional immune cells to brain functions, the bidirectional relationships between the CNS and the immune system and the relevance of immune components to brain aging and neurodegenerative diseases. This is a ...
It is widely held that the immune system evolved for maintaining the health of an individual. Health promotion is achieved through the ability of immune competent T-cells to recognize pathogens and respond to them, in a manner causing elimination of the pathogens. However, since immune responses ...
Immune Cells and Organs The immune system consists of organs (bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and lymph nodes), cells (T cells; B cells; natural killer, NK, cells; monocytes/macrophages; and neutrophils), and messenger molecules (cytokines, chemokines, and prostaglandins). These components of the...

Abstract. The induction of immune responses requires critical interaction between innate parts of the immune system, which respond rapidly and in a relativ
Recent advances in plant immunity: recognition, signaling, response, and evolution Innate immune system is employed by plants to defend against phytopathogenic microbes through specific perception of non-self molecules and subsequent init... Hou,Zhang,Yang - 《Biologia Plantarum》 被引量: 15发表: 20...
1. The immune system has two levels of immunity – innate and adaptive. The two differs in the components and mechanisms by which they provide protection to the body.2. Innate immunity is provided by structures and cells that exist naturally in our bodies. This form of immunity is NONSPECIFIC...
A fundamental concept in immunology is that the innate immune system initiates or instructs downstream adaptive immune responses. Inflammasomes are central players in innate immunity to pathogens, but how inflammasomes shape adaptive immunity is complex and relatively poorly understood. Here we highlight ...
Many studies of intestinal immunology have overlooked the fact that the intestine comprises several anatomically defined segments that each have distinct physiological roles and immunological components. The immune system of the small intestine focuses on protecting the ability of the surface epithelium to ...
In addition, studies have revealed other roles for the autophagic machinery beyond autophagy. In this Review, we introduce advances in the knowledge of the roles of autophagy and its components in immunity, including innate immunity, inflammatory responses and adaptive immunity. 展开 关键词:...
