Innate immune cells are white blood cells that mediate innate immunity and include basophils, dendritic cells, eosinophils, Langerhans cells, mast cells, monocytes and macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells. Featured Evolving Rel Genes in transcription factor families presumably arose to accommodate the in...
Mononuclear phagocytes include monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells and play a pivotal role in initiating innate immune responses. Their functions involve phagocytosis and killing of bacteria, antigen presentation, inflammatory cytokine production in response to bacterial challenge, as well as recruitmen...
This chapter describes the broad variety of mobile cells of the innate immune system. The cells include phagocytic cells such as monocytes/macrophages, polymorphonuclear neutrophils, and dendritic cells; cells that release inflammatory mediators such as eosinophils, basophils, and mast cells; and innate...
The traditional view that the adaptive and innate immune defense is divided into two compartments is now more or less history. The fish innate immune cells comprise not only the “traditional” innate cells such as macrophages (Kordon et al.2018; Rieger and Barreda2011; Grayfer et al.2014,2...
NK cells are constantly patrolling the body and are an effective mechanism for controlling potential infections and preventing cancer progression. The various types of immune cells are shown in [link]. Cells involved in the innate immune response include mast cells, natural killer cells, and white ...
a固有免疫细胞主要包括吞噬细胞,树突状细胞、NK细胞、NKT细胞、T细胞、B1细胞、肥大细胞、嗜碱性粒细胞和嗜酸性粒细胞。 The inherent immune cell mainly includes the phagocyte, the tree suddenly shape cell, the NK cell, the NKT cell, the T cell, the B1 cell, the adipose cell, the basophil granular...
Key components of the innate immune system include physical barriers like the skin and mucous membranes, as well as cellular and chemical defences such as phagocytes (e.g., dendritic cells (DCs), neutrophils, and macrophages), natural killer cells, and antimicrobial proteins like complement and ...
(apoptosis). Butmacrophage functionis not confined to just this first level sweep of unwanted material. Upon phagocytosis of foreign microbes, they present molecular components of the microbes toT cells, thereby expanding the scope of the immune response to include adaptive cellular mechanisms, of ...
The immune cells primarily associated with innate immune memory response include monocytes, tissue macrophages, natural killer cells, as well as hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow. This Special Issue on innate immune memory provides a venue for publishing research that increases our ...
Cytokine storm: Molecular mechanism and potential therapeutics in COVID-19. Lung infection by SARS-CoV-2 leads to production of several pro-inflammatory cytokines by innate immune cells. The combination of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interferon (IFN)-γ activates PANoptosis leading to a cytokin...
