This book focuses on C-type lectin receptors, a newly emerging family of pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) and a crucial part of the human innate immune system. Above all, the authors highlight these receptors’ role in the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) – one of the first steps in responding to foreign and potentially dangerous structures in the human body.
The respective chapters chiefly examine various C-type lectin receptors, their corresponding ligands, and signalling. In addition to offering immunologists and clinicians important insights from the latest research, they may also provide novel points of departure for future drug development.

The book presents the latest findingson C-type lectin receptors, focusing on individual receptors and theirsignaling. In recent years there have been great advances in the understandingof the function of these receptors as a newly emerging family of pattern-recognitionreceptors (PRRs) for pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) anddamage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). Comprising four parts:ITAM-coupled Activating Receptors; HemITAM-bearing Receptors; ITIM-bearingReceptors; and Other Receptors and Related Topics, this comprehensive reviewcovers a broad range of C-type lectin receptors. The updated information onC-type lectin receptors and their ligands provided will appeal to a widereadership, from basic immunologists to physicians and surgeons. In addition,sections on novel drug development make this a valuable resource forpharmaceutical scientists.
