Innate Immune Recognition of Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Johanneke Kleinnijenhuis, Marije Oosting, Leo A. B. Joosten, Mihai G. Netea, Reinout Van Crevel

“…Several classes of pattern recognition receptors (PPRs) are involved in the recognition of M. tuberculosis, including Toll-like receptors (TLRs), C-type lectin receptors (CLRs), and Nod-like receptors (NLRs). Among the TLR family, TLR2, TLR4, and TLR9 and their adaptor molecule MyD88 play the most prominent roles in the initiation of the immune response against tuberculosis. …”

Caspase-11 Modulates Inflammation and Attenuates Toxoplasma gondii Pathogenesis by Sheryl L. Coutermarsh-Ott, John T. Doran, Caroline Campbell, Tere M. Williams, David S. Lindsay, Irving C. Allen

“…Infection with T. gondii results in activation of nucleotide binding domain and leucine rich repeat containing receptors (NLRs). NLR activation leads to inflammasome formation, the activation of caspase-1, and the subsequent cleavage of IL-1β and IL-18. …”

Prognostic Roles of Inflammatory Markers in Pancreatic Cancer: Comparison between the Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio by Dongwook Oh, Jung-Soo Pyo, Byoung Kwan Son

“…Using a random-effects model, the estimated rates of high NLR and PLR were 0.379 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.310–0.454) and 0.490 (95% CI 0.438–0.543), respectively. High NLRs were frequently found in patients with lower tumor stages and in those who underwent surgery. …”

Host-pathogen interaction in invasive Salmonellosis. by Hanna K de Jong, Chris M Parry, Tom van der Poll, W Joost Wiersinga

“…The interaction of Salmonella pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) with Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and NOD-like receptors (NLRs) leads to inflammasome formation, activation, and recruitment of neutrophils and macrophages and the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, most notably interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and interferon-gamma (IFN)-γ. …”
