Abstract:Inflammation is a crucial mechanism of innate immune response. Macrophages and neutrophils recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), undergoing a complex set of signaling interactions to release pro-inflammatory cytokines (most notably that prompt inflammatory response. To mediate innate immune response, pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) recognize a broad range of markers of infection, stress, and damage. PRRs include membrane-bound receptors… Show more
