The complement system is a key component of the innate immune response. Here, we have examined the role of complement anaphylatoxin C5a in an experimental model of Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia. Our data provide compelling evidence for a...
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase regulates macrophage responses to double-stranded RNA and encephalomyocarditis virus [0.03%]

Virus infection of macrophages stimulates the expression of proinflammatory and antiviral genes interleukin-1 (IL-1), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). In this study, we show that phosphatidylinositol 3-ki...
Precursor processing of human defensin-5 is essential to the multiple functions in vitro and in vivo [0.03%]

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation of macrophages initiates intracellular signaling pathways leading to activation of MAPK and its subsequent influence on cytokine production. We recently identified a LITAF-STAT6(B) complex regulated by p...
Interactions of ficolin and mannose-binding lectin with fibrinogen/fibrin augment the lectin complement pathway [0.03%]

Ficolins are a group of oligomeric lectins with subunits consisting of both collagen-like and fibrinogen-like domains. The majority of ficolins identified in vertebrates and invertebrates to date recognize N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc). X-ra...

Innate immunity relies upon the ability of a variety of recognition molecules to sense pathogens through conserved molecular signatures that are often carbohydrates. Ficolins are oligomeric proteins assembled from collagen-like stalks and f...
