1
Innate vs. Adaptive Immunity
Primitive (found in all multicellular organisms) Directed towards types of molecules Effectors are broadly reactive Response is immediate No anamnestic responses Effectors: epithelial cells, phagocytes, endothelial cells, fibroblasts Only in vertebrates Directed towards specific epitopes Response is slow Effectors are highly specific Memory persists Effectors: Lymphocytes, APCs
2
Adaptive Immunity
3
Defects in Innate Immunity
Chronic granulomatous disease--CGD (pyogenic infections, Aspergillus) Burns/chemotherapy: Loss of barrier integrity (bacteria, yeasts) Neutropenia (bacteria, yeasts, molds) Rare specific defects in cytokines/receptors (susceptibility to particular infections) Complement deficiencies (meningococcus) Corticosteroids (Aspergillus, Candida, herpesviruses)
4
Defects in Adaptive Immunity
SCID--no T or B cells (severe, fatal infections) AIDS--loss of CD4+ T cells (Intracellular pathogens, fungi, viruses, pyogenic infections, etc.) Transplant--immunsuppression of T cells (viral, fungal) Common Variable Immunodeficiency (decreased IgG)--generally mild increase in sinopulmonary bacterial infections Asplenia--encapsulated bacteria Corticosteroids
5
Molecular features of Innate Immunity
Certain proteins are vital to functioning of the innate immune system Both natural and acquired defects in these proteins give clues to their roles in defense. These proteins are present in a wide variety of species
6
Normal fruit fly Fruit fly lacking Toll
7
Toll-like receptor structure
8
Pattern recognition receptors
9
Newly described PRRs TLR11--identifies uropathogenic E. coli in humans (not clear what molecule yet) Nod1--intracellular receptor with N-terminal CARD domain and C-terminal LRRs. Recognizes intracellular Shigella flexneri Nod2--similar to Nod1. Ligand not known, but is associated with Crohn’s disease
10
TLRs and their ligands
13
Interaction between TLRs and ligands
14
IRAK interactions and TLR signalling
