Challenging the Leukocyte‐Centric Model of Innate Immunity: The Emerging Role of Structural Cells in Immune Defense

Innate immunity has long been viewed as the domain of circulating mobile immune cells orchestrating defense through systemic responses. However, this model cannot explain why some tissues can provide hyperlocal and confined protection to specific microenvironments that precede systemic leukocyte recruitment. A recent...
