EPITELIAL SURFACES ARE IMPORTANT
IN THE FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE
α2-macroglobulin inhibits potentially damaging
proteases
About 10% of serum proteins are protease inhibitors.
Human defensins are variable antimicrobial peptides
Peptides of 30-40 amino acids, amphipathic character
They penetrate microbial membranes
Ongoing race between pathogens and the immune system of the host
Normal flora
Cells of human body: 90% microbes, 10% human
Symbiotic, non-pathogenic microbes
– mucosal membrane, skin
Bacteria, Fungi, Protozoa
Gut – colonalization after birth
1012 bakteria/g (1.5 kg) intestinal content
1000 species
100-times more bacterial genes then eukaryotic
„peaceful” commensalisms
vitamins (i.e. K1 vitamin)
real ecosystem, survival of the fittest,
competition with pathogenic organism
the few who brake in through the gut
epithelium induce local immune response
Important role in:
- development of mucosal and systemic immunity
- normal development of peripheral lymphoid organs
- maintenance of basic level of immunity

NEW THERAPEUTIC TARGET
Figure 3 The 'hourglass' shape of the innate immune response. Although microbial stimuli are chemically complex
and although the innate immune response ultimately involves the activation of thousands of host genes, innate
immune signals traverse a channel of low complexity. Ten Toll-like receptors (TLRs), four TIR (Toll/interleukin-1
receptor homologous region) adaptors and two protein kinases are required for most microbial perception. This
circumstance lends itself to effective pharmacotherapeutic intervention. NF-B, nuclear factor-B; STAT1, signal
transducer and activator of transcription 1.

PHAGOCYTOSIS
Macrophages ingest and degrade particulate antigens through the use of long
pseudopodia that bind and engulf bacteria. The engulfed bacteria are degraded
when the phagosome fuses with a vesicle containing proteolytic enzymes
(lysosome), forming the phagolysosome. Specialized compartments also exist in
the macrophage to promote antigen processing for presentation to antigenspecific T cells.
Opsonization enhances the efficiency of
phagocytosis of pathogens by phagocytes

INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE
The classic symptoms of inflammation:
redness (rubor) - vasodilation,
swelling (tumor) - edema,
heat (calor) – increased perfusion,
pain (dolor) – factors stimulating nociceptors,
loss of function (functio laesa)
CONSEQUENCES OF MACROPHAGE ACTIVATION
SYNTHESIS OF CYTOKINES
Systemic effects of pro-inflammatory cytokines
Systemic release of TNFa initiates septic shock
Septic shock
Local production of
TNFα (and IL1) is beneficial, and
protective,
BUT systemic release
may cause death
Drop in blood volume and hence
blood pressure
Disseminated intrvascular
coagulation
Pro-inflammatory cytokines activate endothel which recruits immunocytes
from blood to infected tissues (extravasatio)

- several granules in their cytoplasm
- have no antigen binding receptors („null cells”)

IL12, and TNFα are also able to activate them
