Trained Immunity: An Ancient Way of Remembering

Publication date: 8 March 2017
Source:Cell Host & Microbe, Volume 21, Issue 3
Author(s): Mihai G. Netea, Jos W.M. van der Meer
The innate arm of the immune system has generally been regarded as primitive and non-specific and, in contrast to adaptive immunity, not to possess memory. Here we review the growing body of evidence that innate immunity has an important capacity to adapt, a de facto innate immune memory (also termed trained immunity), and this provides broad protection against infections.
