Montgomery, Benjamin Christian Sivert

A balance of intracellular signaling events control immune cell functions. In innate immunity, many of these signals are transmitted by subsets of cell surface proteins known as immunoregulatory receptors. Through their recognition of a diverse array of molecules these receptors effectively...

Cortes, Herman D

In response to pathogens, immune cells induce protective effector functions, such as degranulation, phagocytosis and cytokine secretion, which are initiated by stimulatory or inhibitory immunoregulatory receptors expressed on leukocytes. Using a fish immunological model system, the focus of my...

Gurupalli, Hima V

In response to foreign invaders, innate immune cells use cell surface-expressed receptors to trigger intracellular signalling cascades that control various effector responses designed to destroy microbes. These specialized receptors are known as immunoregulatory receptors and structurally they...

Niemand, Rikus R

To combat microbial invaders, immune cells elicit a range of potent antimicrobial effector responses coordinated by complex intracellular signalling events. These events are initiated by the engagement of cell surface-expressed proteins, termed immunoregulatory receptors, that bind to and...
