The innate immune system is the first line of defense against infection. It is a generic rather than pathogen-specific response that recruits immune cells to sites of infection, promotes inflammation, and activates the adaptive immune system. This book examines the cell types that make up the innate immune system, the chemical signals they use to communicate, and the mechanisms that drive inflammation and other consequences of immune activation.
