    Double-stranded RNA analog and type I interferon regulate expression of Trem paired receptors in murine myeloid cells

    Triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells (Trem) proteins are a family of cell surface receptors used to control innate immune responses such as proinflammatory cytokine production in mice. Trem genes be...

    Prediction of the prototype of the human Toll-like receptor gene family from the pufferfish, Fugu rubripes, genome

    The insect Toll family of proteins and their mammalian counterparts seemingly shared one common ancestor and evolved independently. Here we demonstrated that the prototype of the mammalian-type (M-type) Toll f...
