Innate immune recognition
... Current concepts in innate immunity-II 5. Four groups of PRRs exist in host cells (immune & nonimmune cells), including: (1) TLRs, (2) RIG-like receptors (RLRs), (3) NOD-like receptors (NLRs), and (4) C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) 6. These PRRs distribute on cell surface, in cytosol, or in endosom ...

Lymphopoiesis
Lymphopoiesis (lĭm'fō-poi-ē'sĭs) (or lymphocytopoiesis) is the generation of lymphocytes, one of the five types of white blood cell (WBC). It is more formally known as lymphoid hematopoiesis.Pathosis in lymphopoiesis leads to any of various lymphoproliferative disorders, such as the lymphomas and lymphoid leukemias.
