Abstract
Innate immunity as the first line of the immune system, provides initial protection against various pathogens and infections. Recent studies suggest a link between cell stress response and immune response upon exogenous insults in the lung. The key proteins in cellular stress responses were demonstrated to be involved in the activation and regulation of the immune signaling pathways. Further research on the function of these stress proteins in innate immunity defenses, particularly in pulmonary diseases and inflammation may help to clarify the disease pathogenesis and provide potential therapeutic treatments for various infectious and inflammatory lung diseases.
