Данная статья обобщает накопившуюся на сегодняшний день информацию о многообразии образраспознающих рецепторов, их роли в регуляции иммунной системы. Распознавание патогена врожденным иммунитетом происходит с помощью рецепторов к широкому спектру антигенов за счет выделения нескольких высоко консервативных структур микроорганизмов. Эти структуры были названы патоген-ассоциированные образы (Patogen-Associated Molecular Patterns - PAMP). Наиболее изученными являются липополисахарид грамм отрицательных бактерий (LPS), липотейхоевые кислоты, пептидогликан (PGN), CpG мотивы ДНК и РНК. Рецепторы, распознающие PAMP, называются PRR. Данная группа рецепторов также распознает молекулы, образующиеся при повреждении собственных тканей. Такие молекулярные структуры называются Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMP), или образы, ассоциированные с повреждением. В качестве DAMP могут выступать белки теплового шока, хроматин, фрагменты ДНК. В зависимости от локализации, образраспознающие рецепторы принято разделять на: расположенные на мембране Toll-подобные рецепторы (Toll-like receptors, TLR) и рецепторы лектина С-типа (C-type lectin receptors, CLR), а также расположенные в цитоплазме NOD-подобные рецепторы (NOD-like receptors, NLR) и цитоплазматические РНК- и ДНК-сенсоры. Сегодня у человека известно 10 типов TLR, часть из которых расположена на поверхности (TLR1-TLR6, TLR10) большинства клеток, в том числе макрофагов, В-лимфоцитов и дендритных клеток, а часть - в эндосомах (TLR3, TLR7-TLR9). CLR представляет из себя семейство рецепторов, расположенных на мембране и имеющих домены распознавания углеводов (CRD), или структурно сходные лектиноподобные домены типа C (CTLD). В данном семействе рецепторов принято по происхождению и структуре выделять 17 групп. CLR активно участвуют в противогрибковой иммунной защите, а также они играют роль в защите и от других типов микроорганизмов. NOD (нуклеотидсвязывающий и олигомеризационный домен)-подобные рецепторы расположены в цитоплазме. Благодаря этим рецепторам, патоген, который избежал распознавания на поверхности мембраны, сталкивается со вторым уровнем распознавания уже внутри клетки. В данной статье рассматриваются пути активации образраспознающих рецепторов, их эффекты и применение данных эффектов в медицине. This article summarizes currently available information about the variety of image-recognizing receptors and their role in regulation of the immune system. Pathogen recognition by the innate immunity is mediated by receptors to a wide range of antigens via recognition of several highly conservative structures of microorganisms. These structures were named pathogen-associated images or PAMP (pathogen-associated molecular pattern). The best studied types of such structures include lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of gram-negative bacteria, lipoteichoic acids, peptidoglycan (PGN), and CpG DNA and RNA motifs. PAMP-recognizing receptors (PRRS) are a group of receptors, which also recognize molecules released during damage of host tissues. Such molecular structures are called DAMPS (damage-associated molecular patterns) or damage-associated images. Heat shock proteins, chromatin, and DNA fragments may act as DAMPS. Depending on the localization, image-recognizing receptors are generally classified as membrane-located Toll-like receptors (TLR) and C-type lectin receptors (CLR), as well as cytoplasmic NOD-like receptors (NLR) and cytoplasmic RNA and DNA sensors. Today, 10 types of human TLR are known. Some of them are located on the surface (TLR1-TLR6, TLR10) of most cells, including macrophages, B-cells, and dendritic cells, and some are present in endosomes (TLR3, TLR7-TLR9). CLR is a family of membrane receptors that have carbohydrate recognition domains (CRD) or structurally similar lectin-like type C domains (CTLD). Seventeen groups are distinguished within this receptor family based on their origin and structure. CLRs are actively involved in antifungal immune defense and also play a role in protection against other types of microorganisms. NOD (nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain)-like receptors are present in the cytoplasm. These receptors provide the second level of recognition inside the cell for the pathogens that have escaped recognition on the membrane surface. This article discusses activation pathways of image-recognizing receptors, their effects, and the use of such effects in medicine.

Abstract Background and Aims Pathogenesis of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS) is yet to be fully elucidated. Immunological disorders are reported to be involved in the etiology of INS. Due to the efficacy of immunosuppressant agents such as calcineurin inhibitor and rituximab in treating nephrotic syndrome, aberrant activation of the acquired immune system through T and B cells are considered to be the underlying pathogenic mechanisms of INS. Nevertheless, there is a possibility that the innate immune system plays a key role in INS pathogenesis. This study aims to investigate the involvement of innate immunity in INS pathogenesis by examining the expressions of toll-like receptors (TLRs). Method Kidney tissue samples from two INS patients were collected at two points of time: the first biopsy was performed during nephrosis and the second during remission. Total RNA was extracted from the kidney tissue samples, and RNA-sequencing was performed to investigate RNA expression profiles. The differences between RNA expression profiles of TLRs and molecules related to TLR pathways in the tissue samples collected during nephrosis and remission were analyzed. Results There was a significant decrease in RNA expression of TLR9 and TLR10 during remission compared to nephrosis: fold change in each patient was -2.12 and -2.12 for TLR9, and -2.51 and -2.09 for TLR10. RNA expression of TLR8 also decreased: fold change in each patient was -1.19 and -1.75. There were no significant changes in the RNA expression profiles of TLR1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. In addition, there were no differences in the RNA expression profiles of MYD88, IRAK family, and TRAF family molecules that are associated with TLR pathways. However, RNA expressions of IL6, IL1B, IL12B, and TNF, as well as the cytokines controlled by TLR8 and TLR9 pathways, which were activated during nephrosis, disappeared or decreased during remission. Conclusion The involvement of the innate immune system in the pathogenesis of nephrotic syndrome has been suggested in some reports. Based on the fact that the onset or recurrence of nephrosis is triggered by non-specific viral infection, it is highly possible that innate immunity is involved in the pathogenesis of nephrotic syndrome. TLRs play a key role in innate immunity as they elicit the innate immune system after detecting pathogens, induce inflammatory cytokine production, and trigger signaling pathways that activate lymphocytes via maturation of dendritic cells. Specifically, TLR8, 9, and 10 mediate pathways of the first immune response to viral infections. Our study reveals that TLRs play a pivotal role in innate immunity associated with renal tissue during the onset of nephrosis.

Summary Mechanisms of innate immunity are triggered as a result of recognition of evolutionarily conserved structures of microorganisms, named pathogen-associated molecular patterns. Their recognition is mediated by specialized receptors which initiate signalling cascades leading to expression of pro-inflammatory mediators and regulation of acquired immunity. Among several classes of such receptors, Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are extensively studied as they can sense an array of microbial cell wall and membrane components as well as single- and double-stranded RNA and DNA motifs typical for microorganisms. Each TLR consists of a ligand-binding domain containing leucine-rich repeats, a single transmembrane domain and a signalling TIR domain. After ligand binding, TLRs dimerize which facilitates the interaction of their TIR domains with adaptor proteins triggering signalling cascades. TLRs engage four common adaptor proteins, about ten signalling kinases, and a few transcription factors including NFκB, IRF and AP-1. In this review, special attention is paid to TLR4 activated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a component of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, since an exaggerated response to LPS may lead to potentially deadly septic shock. In recent years considerable progress has been made in the understanding of how the cooperation of several proteins, including CD14, TLR4/MD-2 complex and scavenger receptors, modulates the cell response to LPS. These studies have also revealed a dichotomy of signalling pathways triggered by TLR4 which depends on the participation of MyD88 and TRIF adaptor proteins and leads to the expression of genes encoding pro-inflammatory cytokines and type I interferons, respectively. The key event in the TRIF-dependent pathway is the internalization of activated TLR4.
