    One Size Does Not Fit All: Diversifying Immune Function in the Skin - 2 year(s) ago

    Our body’s most outward facing epithelial barrier, the skin, serves as the frontline defense against myriad environmental assailants. To combat these motley threats, the skin has evolved a sophisticated immunological arsenal. In this article, I provide an overview of the skin’s complex architecture and the distinct microniches in which immune cells reside and function. I review burgeoning…

    Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns and the Systemic Immune Consequences of Severe Thermal Injury - 4 year(s) ago

    Thermal injury is often associated with a proinflammatory state resulting in serious complications. After a burn, the innate immune system is activated with subsequent immune cell infiltration and cytokine production. Although the innate immune response is typically beneficial, an excessive activation leads to cytokine storms, multiple organ failure, and even death. This overwhelming immune…

    Neuronal Regulation of Cutaneous Immunity - 4 year(s) ago

    The skin is innervated by numerous sensory afferent neurons that respond to a diverse array of stimuli ranging from gentle touch to noxious pain. Various features of the immune system—pathogen recognition, secretion of soluble mediators—are shared with the nervous system. This has led to the recognition that neurons share some functions with innate immune cells and have the capacity to recognize…
