Innate immunity ↔ Adaptive immunity
Innate immunity ↔ Adaptive immunity
 Innate ( Nonspecific ) Immunity - The term, innate immunity,
refers to the basic resistance to disease that a species
possesses - the first line of defense against infection.
The characteristics of the innate immune response include the
following:
 Responses are Broad-Spectrum (non-specific)
 There is no memory or lasting protective immunity
 There is a limited repertoire of recognition molecules
 The responses are phylogenetically ancient
 Potential pathogens are encountered routinely, but only rarely
cause disease. The vast majority of microorganisms are
destroyed within minutes or hours by innate defenses. The
acquired specific immune response comes into play only if
these innate defenses are breached.
Receptors involved
Receptors involved (adaptive imm.)
Toll-like receptors


Two distinct pathways control the inducible synthesis of antimicrobial peptides in
Drosophila adult flies.
The Toll receptor is activated by the cysteine-knot growth factor Spaetzle (Spz). The
activated Toll receptor triggers phosphorylation of the inhibitory protein Cactus though the
intermediates Tube and Pelle. Phosphorylated Cactus is degraded by the proteasome,
thus allowing nuclear translocation of the transcription factor DIF, which induces synthesis
of the antifungal peptide drosomycin. The antibacterial peptide diptericin is induced by a
distinct pathway in which a putative membrane receptor activates a signaling complex
comprising the Drosophila homologs of IKKβ and IKKγ (encoded by the genes ird5 and
kenny, respectively). This complex induces phosphorylation and cleavage of Relish. Upon
nuclear translocation, the Rel domain from Relish activates synthesis of diptericin. The
caspase Dredd is also required for the induction of the antibacterial peptide genes. Note
that it is not yet known whether Spaetzle directly interacts with Toll. Abbreviations: DD,
death domain; KD, kinase domain; IL, interleukin; TIR, Toll/IL-1 receptor homology domain.
