Microbiomes
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are proteins found on or within cells that play a crucial role in the immune system by recognizing specific patterns associated with pathogens and cellular stress. They help initiate immune responses by detecting molecules that indicate the presence of microbes or damage, thereby facilitating communication between the microbiome and the host's immune system.
