TLR -
Toll-like Receptor
• Family of receptors that bind to pathogenassociated molecular patterns (PAMPs)
• Evolutionarily conserved from Drosophila to humans
• Recognition of bacterial, fungal, and viral patterns
leads to rapid inflammatory response

Characteristics
IP-10/
CXCL10d
Chemotactic for numerous cell types
including Th1-subsets of T cells and NK
cells, inhibits angiogenesis, and exerts
direct antimicrobial activity by unknown
mechanism.
RANTES/
CCL5
Chemotactic for activated T cells,
macrophages, and DC’s. Neutralization of
RANTES shown to reduce Th1-type
granuloma formation.
IFN
d
.
Important cytokine secreted by virusinfected cells. Activates numerous antiviral and anti-growth defense mechanisms.
ISG15
Interferon-induced protein with structural
homology to ubiquitin. Shown to induce
proliferation of PBL’s and increase
cytolytic activity of NK cells.
IFIT1/
GARG16
Protein induced by inflammatory stimuli.
Has tetratricopeptide repeat domains
thought to be involved in protein
processing.
