Toll-Like Receptors in Natural Killer Cells and Their Application for Immunotherapy by Ji-Yoon Noh, Suk Ran Yoon, Tae-Don Kim, Inpyo Choi, Haiyoung Jung

“…Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are the most well-defined PRRs with respect to PAMP recognition and induction of innate immune responses. They recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and trigger innate immune responses by inducing inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, antigen-presenting molecules, and costimulatory molecules. …”

The epidermal lipid-microbiome loop and immunity: Important players in atopic dermatitis by Junchao Wu, Lisha Li, Tingrui Zhang, Jiaye Lu, Zongguang Tai, Quangang Zhu, Zhongjian Chen

“…Based on this analysis, the “lipid-microbiome” positive feedback loop, regulated by immune responses, is proposed. Key scientific concepts of review: The review delves into the impact of adaptive immune responses that regulate the EIME, driving AD, and investigates potential mechanisms by which lipid supplementation and probiotics may alleviate AD through the up-regulation of the epidermal barrier and modulation of immune signaling. …”
