molecular patterns are recognised by pattern recognition receptors (PRR) on host cells Examples of PAMPs are ? lipopolysaccharides (LPS or endotoxin) Gramnegative bacteria ? lipoteichoic acid Grampositive bacteria ? formylpeptides bacteria ? mannans yeast ? glycolipids mycobacteria ? doublestranded RNA, poly IC viruses M A I N F U N C T I O N S O F T H E C O M PL EM EN T SYST EM1.

Some C3b bines with C2a and C4b to form the third enzyme of the plement pathway that is able to split C5 into C5a and C5b. C5a stimulates mast cells to release histamine for inflammation and diapedesis. It also functions as a chemoattractant for phagocytes. The phagocytes are then able to bind to the C3b attached to the surface of the microanism allowing for opsonization (enhanced attachment).
