Innate immunity is found in both animals with and without adaptive immunity. The molecular components of the innate immune system do not appear to be closely related to the molecules of the adaptive system.
The role of innate immune responses in autoimmune disease development. Waldner H. Autoimmune diseases are systemic or organ-specific disorders that are the result of an attack of the immune system against the body's own tissue.Development of autoimmune disease is generally avoided by distinct mechanisms that silence adaptive self-reactive T or B cells.The innate immune system is critically involved in the defense against pathogens and the induction of primary adaptive immune responses.he role of innate immune responses in autoimmune disease development.
