Q

TLR5 ligand

A

flagelin

20
Q

TLR 7, TRL 8, ligand

A

ssRNA

21
Q

TLR 9 ligand

A

unmethylated CpG DNA

22
Q

What is special about TLR 4?

A

it uses both the MyD88 and TRIF pathways

its ligand (LPS) mediates septic shock

23
Q

what does TLR Activation do?

A

triggers antimicrobial pathways that directly kill the pathogen, may cause injury to host by inducing apoptosis or septic shock

24
Q

what cytokine controls the adaptive T-cell immune response?

A

IL-12

John Stockton

25
Q

TRIF works with _____?

MyD88 works with _____?

A

TRAM

TIRAP

26
Q

What are NLRPs and what do they do?

A

subfamily of NLRs that respond to cytosolic PAMPs and DAMPs forming signaling complexes called inflammasomes

27
Q

what do inflammasomes activate and what is its function?

A

caspase-1 and it cleaves inactive cytoplasmic cytokines IL-1beta and IL-18

their secreted froms are proinflammatory cytokines

28
Q

what are SRs?

A

trimeric complexes of type II transmembrane proteins

29
Q

what 3 extracellular domains do they have? what family members?

A

SRCR, collagen-like, alpha-helical coiled-coil

SR-A I, SR-A II (no SRCR), MARCO (no alpha helix)

30
Q

what are the MMR domains? what family members?

A

Cys N-term, fibronectin-like, C-type lectin

MR, DEC-205

31
Q

what are SRs? what do they bind?

A

group of receptors mediating the uptake of oxidized lipoproteins into cells

bind bacteria based on (-) charges, ie. LPS, LPA, nucleic acids, B-glucans, proteins

32
Q

what SRs are expressed on macrophages?

A

SR-A

CD36 (also a TLR2/6 recognition coreceptor)

33
Q

What do SR-KO mice exhibit?

A

increased susceptibility to infection with several pathogens

34
Q

what does the C-type lectin family cotain?

A

conserved carb recognition domain of microbial mannose, N-acetylglucosamine, and B-glcuans (bacteria)

35
Q

what are eukaryotic cell carbs often terminated by?

A

galactose and sialic acid

36
Q

what are mannose receptors involved in and what do they recognize?

A

phagocytosis

terminal D-mannose, L-fucose, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine

37
Q

what do epithelial barriers provide?

A

physical barrier to infection, killing of microbes by locally produced antibiotics (defensins, cathelicidins) and intraepithelial lymphocytes

38
Q

what are defensins, who makes them, what do they do?

A

small cationic peptides with (+) and hydrophobic regions
they are produced by epithelial cells and granule-containing leukocytes
defensins alpha and beta produced by diff cell types
have direct toxicity to microbes and kill by inserting into their membranes

39
Q

what are cathelicidins, who makes them, what do they do?

A

made by neutrophils and barrier epithelial cells in skin, GI & resp. tracts
18-kD 2 domain protein cleaved into 2 peptides (stimmed by cytokines)
have direct toxicity to microorganisms

40
Q

what can neturalize LPS?

A

LL-37 of cathelicidins (plays anti-inflammatory role by binding DNA, blocks AIM2)

41
Q

what do activated macrophages produce and what do their products do?

A

IL-10 polarizes TH2 (helper T’s)

IL-12 polarizes TH1 (cytotoxic T’s)

42
Q

precursor Id2 transcription factor signaling of ILCs

A

IL-15 and IL-7 –> T-bet (ILC1) –> IL-12 and IL-18 –> IFN-gamma which stimulates phagocytes and TH1 response (cytotoxic T)

43
Q

what do NK cells recognize and what do they do?

A

ligands on own infected/stressed cells

release intracellular pathogens for phagocytosis

44
Q

what do NK cells activate and what are the receptors called

A

PTKs (always on)
KIRs
do not kill class 1 MCH expressing healthy cells
phosphatases prevent activation

45
Q

when do NK cells become activated?

A

when the inhibitory receptor is not engaged

NK will kill cells not expressing MHC I molecules (virus infected/stressed)
