PAMPs and PRRs
- PAMPs = Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns
- PRRs = Pattern Recognition Receptors

- Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)
- Peptideglycan

- Toll-like receptor (TLR)
- NOD-like receptor
- RIG-like receptor
- Scavenger receptor
- Opsonin

Toll-like receptor (TLR)
- Toll is originally a gene discovered in 1985 as a determinant gene of orientation of dorsum and abdomen in drosophila (fruit fly)
- Toll means 'great' in German
- Later toll gene was also discovered to be involved in immunity of drosophila in 1996
- In 1997 'toll-like gene' resembling the original toll gene was found in mice, which functions in innate immunity of broad range of vertebrates
- Toll-like gene produces toll-like receptor expressed on the surfaces of innate immunity cells
