Innate Immunity is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering innate immunity in humans, animals, and plants. It is published by SAGE Publications on behalf of the International Endotoxin & Innate Immunity Society and the editor-in-chief is Otto Holst (Research Centre Borstel, Germany).
The innate immune system or nonspecific immune system [1] is one of the two main immunity strategies in vertebrates (the other being the adaptive immune system). The innate immune system is an alternate defense strategy and is the dominant immune system response found in plants, fungi, prokaryotes, and invertebrates (see Beyond vertebrates). [2 ...

At Harvard, he created the first course dedicated to the study of innate immunity and co-created a long-running course on Mechanisms of Bacterial Pathogenesis and the Host Immune Response. He is a prolific author of reviews and perspectives on the molecular mechanisms and evolutionary implications of immunity and has an active science-based ...
Mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (MAVS) is a protein that is essential for antiviral innate immunity.MAVS is located in the outer membrane of the mitochondria, peroxisomes, and mitochondrial-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM).
The immune response to cancer can be categorized into the two main categories as discussed above: innate immunity and adaptive immunity. Innate immunity is the first line of defense against cancer. It consists of non-specific immune cells that can recognize and destroy abnormal cells, including cancer cells. Natural killer (NK) cells, dendritic ...
The European Journal of Immunology is an academic journal of the European Federation of Immunological Societies covering basic immunology research, with a primary focus on antigen processing, cellular immune response, immunity to infection, immunomodulation, leukocyte signalling, clinical immunology, innate immunity, molecular immunology, and related new technology.
Trained immunity is a long-term functional modification of cells in the innate immune system which leads to an altered response to a second unrelated challenge. [1] For example, the BCG vaccine leads to a reduction in childhood mortality caused by unrelated infectious agents. [ 2 ]
