Signal Transduction in Host-Microbial Interactions and Inflammation

Nelson Gekara
The innate immune system provides the first line of defense against microbes and other foreign substances. Innate immune detections of and responsiveness to microbes is mediated by sets of receptors known as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). Our research is interested in understanding the mechanisms that govern the regulation of signaling pathways of microbe recognition receptors of  the innate immunsystem.
