Abstract In 1994, the “danger model” argued that adaptive immune responses are driven
rather by molecules released upon tissue damage than by the recognition of “strange” …

This review summarizes a short list of currently discussed trauma-induced danger-
associated molecular patterns (DAMP). Due to the bivalent character and often pleiotropic …

This opinion article discusses the increasing attention paid to the role of activating damage-
associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) in initiation of inflammatory diseases and …

Trauma remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Traumatic injury disrupts
immune system homeostasis and may predispose patients to opportunistic infections and …

Our body handles tissue damage by activating the immune system in response to
intracellular molecules released by injured tissues [damage-associated molecular patterns …

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 …

Trauma is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the world. Multiple trauma or
isolated traumatic brain injury are both indicative of human tissue damage. In the early …

This article is the second part of a review that addresses the role of damage-associated
molecular patterns (DAMPs) in human diseases by presenting examples of traumatic …

Members of the Federation of Clinical Immunology Societies are invited to attend an exciting
meeting on damage-associated molecular pattern molecules [DAMPs] in acute and chronic …

Sepsis refers to the deleterious and non-resolving systemic inflammatory response of the
host to microbial infection and is the leading cause of death in intensive care units. The …
