Stable Clusters Formation in an Artificial Immune System
... When a B-cell recognizes an antigen, it clones (i.e. produces identical copies of itself) as well as secretes free antibodies. The process of amplifying only those cells that produce a useful antibody type is called clonal selection, and the number of clones produced by a lymphocyte is proportional ...

Sensing the Dark Side of DNA
... means that any microbe with DNA that stimulates gene expression by the transcription factors NF-κB and IRF3 will also signal via a cyclic dinucleotide, this time made by the host cell via cGAS. The pathway is also likely to be important for the sensing of self DNA, which can lead to autoimmunity. ...

Induction and function of type I and III interferon in... viral infection David E Levy , Isabelle J Marie´
... IFN-b is also constitutively produced by uninfected cells at exceedingly low but physiologically significant levels [25]. In contrast to viral induction of IFN-b, constitutive secretion appears to be independent of IRF3 and 7; instead, there is a switch to dependence on the AP-1 subunit c-Jun. Con ...
