Il sistema immunitario “sente” fisicamente i microbi prima ancora di riconoscerli come tali
Il “contatto fisico” dei microrganismi con le cellule immunitarie potrebbe essere la chiave di volta della risposta di un organismo nelle prime fasi di un’infezione. Grazie a questo meccanismo, il sistema immunitario può iniziare a reagire prima ancora di avere identificato il microrganismo attraverso i suoi segnali molecolari. A rivelarlo è lo studio “Microbial adhesion promotes Piezo1 activation to initiate innate immunity…

What if PRRs are not the first to sense #infection? 🚨Our new paper out in #NatureImmunology! @natimmunol.nature.com Microbial adhesion acts an unrecognized danger signal, activating #Piezo1 → LTB4 and triggering #PRR independent early #neutrophil recruitment. 🔗 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Granucci and colleagues identify microbial adhesion to myeloid cells as a critical initiating event that precedes engagement of pattern recognition receptors.
