This chapter provides are view of recent progress in the elucidation of innate immune mechanisms in crustaceans. Mainly due to the importance of crustacean aquaculture interest in this field is large and the subject for extensive research efforts. Here, we provide detailed data on the molecular characterisation of lectins, antiviral reactions, hemocyte formation and differentiation and on the regulation of innate immune pathways.

Phagocytosis by immunocompetent cells is a key role in the biological defense mechanism and is the starting point of the reaction that leads from innate to acquired immunity. Several studies have demonstrated that some lactic acid bacteria strains activate the innate and acquired immune systems of the host. However, further investigation of the mechanism and improvement of usefulness is needed because the effect differs depending on the type and strain of lactic acid bacteria.

How nsp16, with its obligate partner nsp10, assembles on the 5'-end of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA to methylate the A has not been fully understood. We present a ∼ 2.

However, its role in these conditions remains poorly defined. Here we show that K16 negatively regulates type-I interferon (IFN) signaling and innate immune responses.

( ) thwarts innate immune defense mechanisms in alveolar macrophages (AMs) during the initial stages of infection and in recruited bone marrow-derived cells during later stages of infection. However, how protective inflammatory responses are achieved during infection and the variation of the response in different macrophage subtypes remain obscure.

The most abundant envelope glycolipid is trehalose dimycolate (TDM). TDM compromises the host response to mycobacterial species via multiple mechanisms, including inhibition of phagosome maturation.
