HIV provides ample PAMPs for innate immune sensing.
Viral genomes comprise either RNA or DNA, and sometimes both, as can happen with retroviruses at different stages of their life cycle. Viral nucleic acids are pathogenassociated molecular patterns (PAMPs) that are detected by a variety of pathogenrecognition receptors (PPRs), key components of the innate immune system. A diverse set of PRRs has evolved to sense the genetic material of viruses. ...
متن کاملHIV-1 Structural Proteins Serve as PAMPs for TLR2 Heterodimers Significantly Increasing Infection and Innate Immune Activation
Immune activation is critical to HIV infection and pathogenesis; however, our understanding of HIV innate immune activation remains incomplete. Recently we demonstrated that soluble TLR2 (sTLR2) physically inhibited HIV-induced NFκB activation and inflammation, as well as HIV-1 infection. In light of these findings, we hypothesized that HIV-1 structural proteins may serve as pathogen-associated...

متن کاملInnate Immune Sensing of DNA
When a pathogen attacks, the immune system rapidly mobilizes host defenses in order to reduce the microbial burden and limit damage to the host [1]. Innate immunity is the first line of defense and relies on germ line–encoded pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as the Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which sense microbial products that are not normally found on or in mammalian cells. The consi...
متن کاملInnate Immune DNA-Sensing Pathways
Recognition of foreign DNA in intracellular compartments or in the cytoplasm sounds an alarm bell signaling pathogenic invasion. In response, innate immune DNA-sensing pathways launch an antimicrobial type I interferon (IFN) response, which becomes damaging to the host if unregulated or inappropriately activated by self-DNA. This Select highlights recent insights into activation and regulation ...
