How stress protein networks influences immunological reactions. Immunological events can be broken down into a series of interdependent phases: immunological recognition, an immunological response following by regulation of that response and resolution of inflammation leading to a return to homeostasis. The stress protein network influences each phase of the immunological event and ultimately, resolution-associated molecular patterns may help facilitate the return to immunological homeostasis. The different phases at which existing and future therapeutics act are also illustrated.
