Inflammation 1- Innate Immunity Flashcards
What is the first line of defense against microbes and that prevents infection of the host and, in many cases, can eliminate the microbes before the development of adaptive immune response?
Inflammation
What mechanism of the innate immunity are often used to eliminate microbes even in adaptive immune response?
Effector mechanism
What immunity to microbes stimulates adaptive immune responses and can influence the nature of adaptive responses to make them optimal effective against different types of microbes?
Innate immunity
What immunity can recognize structures that are characteristic of microbial pathogens and are not present on mammalian cells?
Innate immunity
What immune system has evolved to recognize microbial products that are often essential for survival of the microbes?
Innate immune system
What of the innate immune system are encoded germ line?
Receptors
What does PAMPs stand for?
Pathogen associated molecular patterns
What does MAMPs stand for?
Microbe associated molecular patterns
What are PAMPs recognized by?
Receptors
Pro inflammatory signals, cytokine release, and phagocytosis are what?
Receptor functions
What are toll-like receptors, nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors, and retinoic acid inducible gene-like receptors?
Receptor families
What receptors are transmembrane proteins and recognize PAMPs?
Toll-like
What receptors are expressed in macrophages, dendritic cells and mast cells?
Toll-like
What receptors epithelium is exposed to the external environment?
Toll-like
What does each TLR (toll-like receptors) detect?
A different set of PAMPs
