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” …

There are numerous defense proteins present in the saliva. Although some of these
molecules are present in rather low concentrations, their effects are additive and/or …

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) such as HSP 60 (Hsp60), Hsp70, Hsp90, and gp96, have been
reported to play important roles in antigen presentation and cross-presentation, activation of …

The heat-shock response, one of the main pro-survival mechanisms of a living organism,
has evolved as the biochemical response of cells to cope with heat stress. The most well …

Antigen cross-presentation is an adaptation of the cellular process of loading MHC-I
molecules with endogenous peptides during their biosynthesis within the endoplasmic …

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are induced in response to many injuries including stroke,
neurodegenerative disease, epilepsy, and trauma. The overexpression of one HSP in …

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are molecular chaperones involved in a variety of life activities.
HSPs function in the refolding of misfolded proteins, thereby contributing to the maintenance …

Recent evidence shows divergence between the concentrations of extracellular 70 kDa heat
