Since we cannot do full justice to the increasingly complex topic of innate immunity to influenza virus in one review, we emphasize certain areas (e.g., soluble innate inhibitors, which are our ...

The idea that the human immune system is really two systems -- the innate and the adaptive -- is not new. But for years, researchers have concentrated on the sophisticated workings of the adaptive ...

The mainstay of treatment for symptomatic cold viruses is to suppress, not boost, our crude and clunky innate immune responses. That’s why we take fever reducers and antihistamines. Even if a ...

Several studies have now demonstrated that trained immunity occurs in the airways to several pathogens and products, while its utility is yet to be determined.

Innate immunity is an immunological subsystem that comprises the cells and mechanisms that provide the first line of defence from infection in a non-specific manner. Innate immune responses are ...

If we assume that herd immunity requires 50% of its population to get infected (implicitly 10-15% innate immunity), this yields an IFR of 0.25% for San Marino. I believe this rules out IFR ...

The immune system comprises two immunity strategies: the innate and the acquired (adaptive) immune system. The innate immune system provides general protection from pathogens and must react quickly.

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 ...

This area of innate immunity “is one of the hottest areas in fundamental immunology today,” said Dr. Robert Gallo, the director of the Institute of Human Virology at the University of Maryland ...
