Immunobiology
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are specialized proteins expressed by immune cells that identify and bind to specific molecules associated with pathogens, known as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). These interactions trigger immune responses that help the body recognize and eliminate invading microorganisms, playing a critical role in the innate immune system's ability to detect infections early.
