The innate immune system is the first line of defense against pathogens, which is initiated by
the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and endogenous …

The innate system's recognition of non-self and danger signals is mediated by a limited
number of germ-line encoded pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that recognize pathogen …

Simple Summary The intestinal epithelium of fish, similar to mammals, consists mainly of
enterocytes and goblet cells. Goblet cells play a key role in the secretion of mucus, which, in …

Simple Summary This research aimed to define intestinal DCs from myxines to teleosts by
using immunohistochemistry with TLR-2, Langerin/CD207, and MHC II. In particular, we …

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are essential for identifying and detecting pathogen-associated
molecular patterns (PAMPs) produced by a variety of pathogens, including viruses and …

The present study describes histochemical and immunohistochemical characteristics of the
spiral valve and its associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) in the dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula …

The spread of infectious illnesses has been a significant factor restricting aquaculture
production. To maximise aquatic animal health, vaccination tactics are very successful and …

This study aimed to describe the morphology and to characterize the immunohistochemistry
of the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) in the spiral intestine of the Blackmouth …

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are key components of innate immunity that play significant roles
in immune defence against pathogen invasion. In the present study, we identified a novel …

The mammalian toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is a dominant receptor for the recognition of Gram-
positive bacteria. Its structure and functional properties were unknown in salmonid fish. In …
