Innate Immune Cell Trafficking and Function During Sterile Inflammation of the Liver

McDonald, Braedon, Kubes, Paul·2016·Gastroenterology

Abstract

The sterile inflammatory response (inflammation in the absence of infection) to tissue injury and cell death is required for normal wound healing. However, dysregulated sterile inflammation leads to various acute and chronic inflammatory diseases, including those of the liver and gastrointestinal tract. It is therefore important to increase our understanding of the mechanisms that control physiological versus pathological sterile inflammation. We have begun to clarify the cellular and molecular mechanisms that coordinate the innate immune response to tissue damage and cell death in the liver. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms that alert the immune system to the presence of tissue damage and highlight recent advances in our understanding of innate immune cell trafficking to sites of hepatic sterile inflammation. We explore the functions of various innate immune cells in the coordination of tissue repair, including previously underappreciated roles of peritoneal macrophages and platelets. We propose that dysregulation of immune cell trafficking or function at sites of tissue injury contributes to the misdirection of sterile inflammation to promote chronic inflammatory disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
