Antigen Recognition-
Innate Vs. Adaptive
- Innate
- Pathogens are recognised
by receptors encoded in the
germline
- Pattern Recognition Receptors
- Receptors have broad
specificity
- Recognise Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns
- Immediate Response
- No memory of prior exposure
- Adaptive
- Pathogen recognised by
randomly generated
receptors encoded after
birth
- T Cell/B Cell Receptors
- Receptors have a very narrow
specificity
- Recognise specific antigens
- Slow response (3-5 days)
- Retains memory of prior exposure
