Innate Immune Function by Toll-like Receptors: Distinct Responses in Newborns and the Elderly

TL;DR: Development patterns of distinct Toll-like-receptor-mediated immune responses come to light when one contrasts innate immune development at the beginning of life with that toward the end of life, and these developmental patterns of innate cytokine responses correlate with clinical patterns of susceptibility to disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neonatal Innate TLR-Mediated Responses Are Distinct from Those of Adults

TL;DR: The data suggest a robust if not enhanced capacity of the neonate vs the adult white-blood cell TLR-mediated response to support Th17- and Th2-type immunity, which promotes defense against extracellular pathogens, but a reduced capacity toSupport Th1-type responses, which promote defense against intracellular pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunological mechanisms of vaccine-induced protection against COVID-19 in humans.

TL;DR: Most COVID-19 vaccines have been designed to elicit immune responses, ideally neutralizing antibodies (NAbs), against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein this article.
