PRR: Pattern Recognition Receptor

Pattern Recognition Receptor or PRR. These are quite strange proteins as they serve as the small operatives in our bodies. They’re the ones that never are standstill in pursuit of law – like the bad stuff for instance – like the bacteria or viruses that should not be there. They call out the intruders and then make a sound to pull the immune system closer (the curative treatment).

How PRRs Work

Imagine PRRs waves like bouncers on the doors at a club. They all the time keep a check on each and every thief trying to steal information. Besides, they will perform the appropriate action if the thief is recognized. The human body PRRs always set off watching the skies, checking the invaders’ exteriors for a particular profile. So, in a second, they might initiate our immunity, like pulling the fire alarm to draw the attention of the kids.

Types of PRRs

• ‘Toll-like receptors (TLRs): The veterans of the PRR world’
• ‘NOD-like receptors (NLRs): The indoor security team’
• ‘RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs): The virus-busting squad’
• ‘C-type lectin receptors (CLRs): The sugar-sensing detectives’

Why PRRs Matter

PRRs are the ones that are left forgotten in our body which are the active hero soldiers of the immune system of the whole machinery. If they were not it, all sorts of diseases like flu, deadly bacteria, and viruses would come swooping to us and we’d be the first to go. The first reserves are them, they, in signal, all other cells of the immune system how to get ready for the battle. They’re the look-out for the area police, they can watch out and signal the crisis out if necessary.

PRRs in Action

A flu virus attacks and wants to unlawfully enter the body. However, PRRs are the first line of defense that detect the threat in time and then make an alert. The specific surface patterns whether recognized on the virus, cause our immune response to become very active. Imagine it is a fire drill where everybody is looking for danger and reacting to it. So, the virus gets out as it is being removed by the final domino in an exciting scene.
