Abstract
Surfactant protein A (SP-A), a natural immune molecule, plays an important role in lung health. SP-A recognizes and binds microbial surface glycogroups through the C-type carbohydrate recognition domain, and then binds corresponding cell surface receptors (such as C1qRp, CRT-CD91 complex, CD14, SP-R210, Toll-like receptor, SIRP-α, CR3, etc.) through collagen-like region, and subsequently mediates biological effects. SP-A regulates lung innate immunity by promoting surfactant absorption by alveolar type II epithelial cells and phagocytosis of pathogenic microorganisms by alveolar macrophages. SP-A also regulates lung adaptive immunity by inhibiting DC maturation, and T cell proliferation and differentiation. This article reviews latest relationships between SP-A and adaptive and intrinsic immunity.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Immunology publishes original articles, reviews and commentaries on all areas of immunology, with a particular focus on description of cellular, biochemical or genetic mechanisms underlying immunological phenomena. Studies on all model organisms, from invertebrates to humans, are suitable. Examples include, but are not restricted to:
Infection, autoimmunity, transplantation, immunodeficiencies, inflammation and tumor immunology
Mechanisms of induction, regulation and termination of innate and adaptive immunity
Intercellular communication, cooperation and regulation
Intracellular mechanisms of immunity (endocytosis, protein trafficking, pathogen recognition, antigen presentation, etc)
Mechanisms of action of the cells and molecules of the immune system
Structural analysis
Development of the immune system
Comparative immunology and evolution of the immune system
"Omics" studies and bioinformatics
Vaccines, biotechnology and therapeutic manipulation of the immune system (therapeutic antibodies, cytokines, cellular therapies, etc)
Technical developments.
