ISSN Series: | Advances in Experimental Medicine & Biology | Discipline: | Micro/Immuno | Subject Definition: | Immunity, Innate-Genetics; Gene Targeting | NLM Class: | QW 541 | LC Class: | QR185.95 | Abstract: | Target pattern recognition in innate immunity is responsible for the immediate, usually protective, responses shown against invading microorganisms, and it is the principal feature of self and non-self recognition by virtue of the recognition of structures on the microbial pathogens, which are not found on host cells. This is an area that has been very actively researched, over approximately the past 12 years, and therefore this volume provides a timely comprehensive, and up to date, summary of the types and range of cell surface, intracellular, and secreted, host proteins involved in the recognition of microbial products, and of the protective mechanisms triggered as a result of the recognition events. In view of the growing interest in the cross-talk between innate and adaptive immunity, a thorough understanding of the initial recognition and triggering events, mediated via innate immune receptors, as addressed in this volume, is clearly very useful in helping to also fully understand the mechanisms of activation and control of the adaptive immune system.and to allow a full assessment of the relative roles played by innate immunity and adaptive immunity against a particular infection in higher organisms. |
