Innate Immune Response Jennifer Nyland, PhD Office: Bldg #1, Room B10 Phone: 733-1586 Email: jnyland@uscmed.sc.edu
Teaching objectives • Understand the mechanisms of combating infection/disease • How does the body kill pathogens? • To know the humoral and cellular components of the innate immune response • What are the key features and timing? • What is the mechanism of action of the components of the innate immune response?
Innate host defenses against infection • Anatomical barriers • Mechanical, chemical, biological • Humoral components • Complement (lecture 9- Robinson), coagulation system, cytokines (lectures 7 & 8- Nyland) • Cellular components • Neutrophils, monocytes & macrophages, NK cells, eosinophils
Innate host defenses against infection • Anatomical barriers • Mechanical, chemical, biological • Humoral components • Complement (lecture 9- Robinson), coagulation system, cytokines (lectures 7 & 8- Nyland) • Cellular components • Neutrophils, monocytes & macrophages, NK cells, eosinophils

Phagocytosis and Intracellular killing Neutrophils and Macrophages
Phagocyte response to infection • Vascular adherence • The SOS signals • N-formylmethionine-containing peptides • Clotting system peptides • Complement products • Cytokines 2. diapedesis 3. chemotaxis 4. activation, phagocytosis & killing Source: SOM PathMicro online textbook
Phagocytosis A. • Attachment via receptors • FcR, complement R, scavenger R, Toll-like R • Pseudopod extension • Phagosome formation • Granule fusion and Phagolysosome formation B. Cytoplasm C. D.
G-6-P-dehydrogenase NADPH oxidase Cytochrome B Superoxide dismutase Glucose + NADP+ NADPH +O2 2O2- + 2H+ 2O2- + H2O2 OH* + OH-+1O2 Pentose-P + NADPH NADP+ + O2- H2O2+1O2 Respiratory burst O2-dependent MPO-independent reactions Toxic compounds: superoxide anion O2-, hydrogen peroxide H2O2, singlet oxygen1O2 , hydroxyl radical OH*
myeloperoxidase H2O2+ Cl- 2OCl- + H2O 1O2 + Cl-+H2O OCl-+H2O Respiratory burst O2-dependent MPO-dependent reactions Toxic compounds: hypochlorous acid OCl-, singlet oxygen1O2
Superoxide dismutase Catalase O2- + 2H+ 2H2O2 H2O2+O2 H2O+O2 Respiratory burst Detoxification reactions
Nitric oxide-dependent killing • NO is toxic to infected cells in vicinity of macrophage TNFα NO Synthase Arginine NO (rapid diffusion)
Non-specific killer cells NK cells Eosinophils Mast cells
Innate response to virus infection and altered self MICA MICB KAR KIR perforin Killing of Infected cell X
Innate response to intracellular pathogens • Activated NK cells (LAKs) • Release Lytic granule components • perforin • granzymes
Innate response to extracellular microorganisms (parasites) • Activated eosinophils release granule components • Major basic protein • Major component of granules • Eosinophil peroxidase • Cationic hemoprotein • Eosinophil cationic protein • ribonuclease
Pathogen recognition by innate immune system PAMPs PRRs
PAMPs- pathogen associated molecular patterns • LPS: • Gram-pos: • Gram-neg: (gly)5 CO-NH
PRRs – pathogen recognition receptors • Soluble receptors: • complement, mannose binding protein • Host cell receptors: • TLRs, scavenger O-antigen Core oligosaccharide Lipid A
Determinants recognized by the innate immune system • Non-specific (not antigen specific) receptor recognition • Part of innate antimicrobial defense • Toll-like receptors on macrophages bind pathogen and cause activation
Immune response to damage • Dependent on what, where and how bad • Phased response with critical timing • Requires chemokine signaling, receptor binding, etc Days: 0 4 7 Weeks: 2 4 6
