1
How Immunity Evolved
• The immune system evolved under selective
pressure imposed by infectious
microorganisms.
• Multicellular organisms have developed
various defense mechanisms that have the
capacity to be triggered by infection and to
protect the host organism by destroying the
invading microbes and neutralizing their
virulence factors.
2
How the Innate and Adaptive
Immune Systems Recognize Pathogens
• Immune responses can be innate or adaptive.
• The innate immune system uses germlineencoded receptors for the recognition of
microbial pathogens.
• The adaptive immune system (found only in
vertebrates) uses receptors generated by
somatic mechanisms (gene rearrangements)
during the ontogeny of each individual
organism.
3
The Adaptive Immune System
• Somatic mechanisms generate a diverse
repertoire of antigen receptors with random
specificities, which are clonally distributed on
immune cells (T and B lymphocytes)  plasticity
• The specificity of the receptors expressed on
each lymphocyte is not predetermined, and
neither is the response that can be induced in
lymphocytes upon ligation of their receptors by
antigen  ambiguity
4
The Cross-talk between
Innate and Adaptive Immunity
•Induction of an immune response is only appropriate if the
antigen recognized is derived from, or belongs to, a
pathogen.
•Activation of lymphocytes specific for self antigens, or
innocuous persistent environmental antigens, is deleterious.
Therefore,
•The adaptive immune response requires signals that
provide information about the origin of the antigen and the
type of response to be induced.
These signals are provided by the innate immune system.
5
Mechanisms of
Innate Immune Recognition
6
How Few Receptors
Can Recognize Many Pathogens
•Immune recognition is unique in that it occurs
between products encoded in different genomes.
•The evolution of innate immunity is driven toward
recognition of invariant molecular constituents of
the infectious agents shared by large groups of
pathogens.
Therefore
A limited number of germline-encoded receptors is
able to recognize a great variety of molecular
structures associated with pathogens.
7
Receptors and Targets
of Innate Recognition
• The targets of recognition represent molecular
patterns, called PAMPs for pathogenassociated molecular patterns, rather than
particular structures.
• Host organisms have developed a set of
receptors that can specifically recognize
PAMPs and are referred to, therefore, as
pattern recognition receptors (PRRs).
8
Innate Discrimination
between Self and Non-self is Perfect
The effect of immune recognition is destruction of the target’
The structures selected for immune recognition must have
been absolutely distinct from self antigens to avoid damage to
self cells and tissues.
Consequences:
•The ability of the innate immune system to discriminate
between self and nonself is perfect.
None of the compounds recognized by the innate immune
system are produced by the host organism, and all of them are
essential for the physiology and survival of the respective
microbes.
9
Pathogen-Associated
Molecular Patterns (PAMPs)
PAMPs represent invariant structures shared by
large groups of microorganisms, and are absolutely
essential for the microbe's survival:
•LPS: common component of gram-negative
bacteria
•teichoic acids: common component of grampositive bacteria
•double-stranded RNA: a structural signature of
several groups of RNA viruses
•bacterial DNA (unmethylated CpG sequences)

Pathogen Recognition and
the Control of Adaptive Immunity
• Antigen receptors expressed on lymphocytes
have randomly generated specificities that
cannot determine the origin or biological
context of their ligands.
• Signaling through an antigen receptor is
insufficient on its own to induce the activation
of lymphocytes or their differentiation into
appropriate effector cells.
13
Costimulation, the Link between
Innate and Adaptive Immunity
•Activation of T lymphocytes requires a costimulatory second
signal in the form of B7 molecules expressed on antigen
presenting cells (APC).
•The function of costimulatory activity is to signal the
presence of pathogens.
•The expression of costimulation must be controlled by
pathogen recognition.
