DAMPS AND PAMPS Flashcards
What is the dirty little secret from charley Jane way
Pathogens associated molecular patterns are recognized by non clonale distribuite receptors found in the host
What is the danger theory by Polly motzinger
Immune response are triggered by danger signals released by body owns cells
How does the body recognize danger
PAMS pathogen associated molecular patterns that bind to PPR pattern recognition receptors
What are bacteria’s patterns of recognition
Liposaccharides
Peptidoglycan
Flagella
Peptides
Unmethylated CpG dna
What are patterns of viruses
Double stranded rna
Uncapped rna
Unmethylated DNA
What are pattterns of fungi
Beta glucans
Chitin
What are the ppr familys
- toll tile receptors
- c-lectin
- nod like receptors
- rigi like helicases
Which pathways in drosophila confer host defense
Toll and Imd
Which pathogens does the toll pathway responds to in drosophila
Against fungi and gram positive bacteria
Which protein is essential for the activation of the toll pathway in response to gram positive bacteria in drosophila
PGRP-SA
What protein is involved in the activation of the toll pathway in response to fungi
Persephone
Which pathway responds to gram negative bacteria in drosophila
Imd and the receptor PGRP-LC
What did Bruce Beutler do
He identified the gene TLR4 as a candidate gene for resisting to bacterial liposaccharides LPS in mice, TRL4 and LPS they directly interact through hexa-a to lipid A
Where are PRR expressed
In innate immune cells
What are the groups of PRR
- Membrane bound
- Cytoplasmatic
- Secreted
What re the membrane bound PRR
toll like receptors
C-type lectins
Scavenger receptors
What are Cytoplasmatic PRRs
- Nods receptors like nlrps or NALP
- RNA helicases like RiGI and MAD-5
What are the secreted PRR
- collectins
Pentraxins
How many toll like receptors do humans have
10 functional TLR genes
Mice have 13
TLR 1/2
Lipopeptides
TLR 3
dsRNA
TLR 4
Lps
TLR 5
Flagellin
TLR 2+6
Lipopeptides
