TOLL-LIKE RECEPTORS
Toll-like receptors &
Host-Pathogen Interaction
O’Neill, Luke A.J. “Immunity’s Early-Warning System”. Scientific American, Jan (2005), 38-45.
Microbe products recognized




Conserved amoung microbes
Known as pathogen-associated
molecular patterns (PAMPs)
PAMPs are recognized by plants as
well as animals, meaning this innate
response arose before the split
Only vertebrates have evolved an
adaptive immune response
Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs)
• Toll-like receptors
• Natural history, function and regulation
•
•
•
•
Mannose binding lectin (MBL)
C-reactive protein
Serum amyloid –P
Functions of PRRs:
– Opsonization, activation of complement and
coagulation cascades, phagocytosis, activation of
pro-inflammatory signaling pathways, apoptosis
Nuesslein-Volhard: Drosophila Toll


Identified a protein she
called “Toll” meaning “weird”
Helps the Drosophila embryo
to differentiate its top from
its bottom
(Neural tube development)

Gay: Toll and Inner Part of Human IL-1R is
Similar




Searching for proteins
similar to Toll
Shows cytoplasmic domain
of Toll related to that of
hIL-1R
Identity extends for 135 aa
Didn’t make sense
Why does a protein involved in human
inflammation look like one involved in fly neural
tube development?

Toll Molecular Structure

domain
LRRs

TIR
Domain
Toll receptor has an
extracellular region which
contains leucine rich repeats
motifs (LRRs)
Toll receptor has a
cytoplasmic tail which
contains a Toll interleukin-1
(IL-1) receptor (TIR) domain
Lemaitre: Flies use Toll to Defend from Fungi

Infected Tl-deficient adult flies
with Aspergillus fumigatus

All flies died after 2-3 days

Flies use Toll to defend from
fungi

Thus, in Drosophila, Toll seems
to be involved in embryonic
development and adult
immunity

Lemaitre: Flies use Toll to Defend from Fungi




Drosophila has no adaptive
immune system
Therefore needs a rapid
antimicrobial peptide response
Two distinct pathways to activate
antimicrobial peptide genes in
adults
Mutations in Toll pathway reduce
survival after fungal infection

Medzhitov & Janeway: Human Toll Discovery



Ancient immune defence
system based on the Toll
signalling
In insect, IL-1 receptor and
the Toll protein are only
similar in the segments
within the cell
They searched for human
proteins that totally
resemble to Toll

Normal mice die of sepsis after
being injected with LPS

C3H/HeJ mice have defective
response to LPS and survive

Missense mutation affecting the
cytoplasmic domain of Tlr4

Major breakthrough in the field of
sepsis – molecular mechanism that
underlies inflammation revealed

Crossing the wires:
Interfering with downstream
TLR-mediated signaling or to
express TLR agonists

Sneaking through the back
door:
Bacteria such as Shigella sp.
and Listeria sp. express
proteins that facilitate their
invasion of macrophages.
