Response of the Innate Immune
System to Pathogens:
Pattern Recognition Receptors
What is the Innate Immune Response?





A universal and evolutionarily conserved mechanism of host defense
against infection
First line of Defense
Predates the adaptive immune response
 Found in all multicellular organisms
 Adaptive only in vertebrates
 Uses receptors and effectors that are ancient in their lineage
 Must provide protection against a wide variety of pathogens
Distinguishes self from non-self perfectly
Defects in innate immunity are very rare and almost always lethal
The Innate Immune Response:
Common Misconceptions

The innate immune system is an evolutionary rudiment whose
only function is to contain the infection until the “real”
immune response can kick in.

Adaptive immunity developed because of the inflexibility of
the nonclonal receptors used by the innate immune response.
The innate system cannot cope with the high mutational rate
and heterogeneity of pathogenic organisms.
The Innate immune system instructs the adaptive
immune response to respond to microbial infection
The major decision to respond or not respond to a
particular ligand is decided by the genome-encoded
receptors of the innate immune system

The NF-kB Family of Transcription Factors





Eukaryotic transcription factor found in essentially all cell types
First described in 1986 as a nuclear factor required for the
transcription of the immunoglobulin kappa light chain in B cells.
Binds to a 10-bp sequence GGGGYNNCCY
Important component in the inducible expression of many
proteins: cytokines, acute phase proteins, adhesion molecules
The NF-kB signaling system is evolutionarily conserved

Three NF-kB molecules in Drosophila

dorsal



controls dorsal/ventral polarity during development
Regulates antifungal gene expression
dif and relish: regulate expression of antifungal and antibacterial genes
NF-kB exists in the cytoplasm as an inactive
heterotrimer composed of 2 Rel family proteins and an
inhibitory IkB molecule

NF-kB Activation
Requirements for the recognition of targets
by the innate immune

Molecular structures recognized by the immune system
must be shared by large groups of pathogens



molecular patterns vs. particular structures (antigens) PAMP
PAMPs must be conserved products of microbial
metabolism not subject to antigenic variability
The recognized structures must be absolutely distinct
from self antigens: discrimination of self vs. non-self
Molecules involved in the recognition of
LPS by Cells

LPS Binding Protein (LBP)





60-kDa serum glycoprotein that binds with high affinity to LPS
Sequence homology to bactericidal/permeability increasing protein
Acute phase protein secreted by hepatocytes
 Serum levels between 1 and 10 ug/ml in normal human serum
 Concentrations >300 ug/ml in acute phase serum
Critical for rapid responses to small amounts of LPS or gramnegative bacteria and for survival of Salmonella infection
Expression of LBP in hepatocytes is regulated by LPS, IL-1, IL-6
and TNF
Molecules involved in the recognition of
LPS by Cells

CD14, sCD14






CD11b/CD18 (Mac1)



55 kDa GPI-linked protein on the surface on monocytes and PMN
Also found as a soluble protein in serum:sCD14
Each CD14 molecule binds 1 molecule of LPS complexed to LBP
Required for responses of genes to low concentrations of LPS
No cellular signaling activity
Alternative cell surface receptor for LPS
Recognizes LPS at high concentrations
For expression of a full repertoire of LPS-inducible genes, CD14
and CD11b/CD18 must be coordinately engaged to deliver optimal
signaling to the macrophage.
