Inflammation part 2 Flashcards
what are the 5 steps of the inflammatory response
5 RS
recognition of injurious stimulus recruitment of leukocytes removal of the causative agent regulation of the response resolution of the response and repair
what is the first line of defence in recognising different pathogen
macrophages and dendritic cells
how many kinds of receptors do dendritic and macrophage cells have
several different types to recognise different pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPS)
what does PAMPS stand for
pathogen associated molecular patterns
what are TLRs
toll like receptors- a class of proteins which recognises PA,PS
what are TLRs made from
multiple leucine rich repeats
where are TLRs found
membrane associated proteins- some are found on the surface and some are endocytic vesicles
what do the endocytic TLrs detect
where they survey degraded particles of substances taken in by endocytosis
what does TLR5 recognise
flagellin- highly conserved constituent of bacterial flagella
what do bacterial genomes contain
highly methylated CPG oligonucleotides MOTIFS
what does TLR9 detect
highly methylated CPG oligonucleotides MOTIFS once it has been degraded in the lysosome
where is TLR9 found
in the endocytic vesicle
what TLRS are a dimer
TLR2 + TLR6
TLR1 +TLR2
what does TLR2 and TLR6 detect
diacylipopeptide
what do TLR1 and TLR2 detect
triacylipopeptide
what does TLR4 detect
lipopolysaccharide- found in gram -ve bacteria
where is TLR3 AND TLR7 found
inside the endocytic vesicle
what does TLR3 recognise
double stranded RNA
what does TLR7 recognise
single stranded RNA
What happens when TLR is activated
it sends a signal to the nucleus which activates transcription factors
where do viruses exist and replicate
in the cytosol
what are the two classes of receptors which recognise pathogens in the cytosol
NOD- nucleotide oligomerazation domain proteins
RNA helices domain and caspase recruitment domain- more importantly RIG-I
what does the NOD2 protein detect
bacterial proteoglycans of intracellular bacteria
what happens when the NOD2 receptor recognises its ligand
sends a signal to nucleus to activate transcription
