Abstract Synopsis
- Collectins are collagen-containing immune molecules that recognize pathogen patterns and help defend the body by activating other immune responses.
- They have a unique structure that includes a collagen region, a coiled-coil neck, and a carbohydrate recognition domain, which allows them to identify various pathogens.
- Collectins not only target microbes directly through processes like opsonization and enhancing phagocytosis but also influence the adaptive immune system by modulating cytokines and interacting with immune cells like macrophages and dendritic cells.]
