Effect of commercially available Plant Defence Stimulators on human innate immunity
PDS (Plant defence stimulators) constitute a recent alternative to pesticides used for crop protection. These compounds are of diverse nature, they all act by stimulating plant innate immune system and plants can better fight pathogens. There are many similarities in pathogen perception systems and cellular signalling in plants and animals. Many elicitors stimulate both human and plant innate immunity (Zipfel and Felix, 2005). Therefore, it is likely that human innate immunity could be modulated by PDS. The aim of this study is to evaluate pro/anti-inflammatory activity of five different commercially available PDS on human cell models. We studied the pro/anti-inflammatory effect of PDS on h…
Effect of commercially available Plant Defence Stimulators (PDS) on human innate immunity
PDS (Plant defence stimulators) constitute a recent alternative to pesticides used for crop protection. These compounds called elicitors are of diverse nature, but they all act by stimulating innate immune system of plants. So, plants can better fight pathogens. Furthermore, there are many similarities in pathogen perception systems and cellular signalling in plants and animals. It is well established that many elicitors stimulate both human and plant innate immunity (Zipfel and Felix, 2005). Therefore, it is likely that human innate immunity could be modulated by PDS.
