Mechanisms of the immune system Nonspecific, innate immunity clonal selection of a B cellClonal selection of a B cell. Activated by the binding of an antigen to a specific matching receptor on its surface, a B cell proliferates into a clone. Some clonal cells differentiate into plasma cells,...

which act in a sequential manner, like a planned military defense system. The various cells have specialized functions which are performed in a highly accurate and controlled manner. Though, the immune system is known to erroneously destroy one’s own body tissues, a process called autoimmunity....

The human immune system is composed of a distributed network of cells circulating throughout the body, which must dynamically form physical associations and communicate using interactions between their cell-surface proteomes1. Despite their therapeutic potential2, our map of these surface interactions rem...
associated with diseases ranging from inflammation to cancer. In this review, we focus on our current understanding of NF-κB regulation and its role in the immune system and inflammatory diseases. We also discuss the role of NF-κB proteins as potential therapeutic targets in clinical applications...

Immune system pressure forces tumor cells to edit the surrounding immune system in order to survive, a process known as cancer immunoediting. Cancer immunoediting involves a first elimination phase in which the immune system recognizes and kills cancer cells. The next phase is an equilibrium stage,...
1 This critical step in the evolution of the immune system can be traced back to the emergence of the ancestors of present-day jawed fish, which represent the most primitive extant species known to have adaptive immune systems based on the generation of large families of specific immunoglobulin-...
