These molecules are collectively known as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), and they are expressed in a wide variety of microorganisms, including those that do not cause disease.

the outcome may be acute lung injury, which is part of the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). DAMPs, damage-associated molecular patterns; PAMPs, pathogen-associated molecular patterns.

and pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). DAMPs are endogenous molecules released from tissue damage, while PAMPs come from the bacteria that have invaded the body. My thesis ...

Plants have two basic immune pathways. First, a pattern recognition receptor (PRR) on the plant cell’s surface recognizes pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) released by invaders—say, the ...

Alcohol and its metabolites disrupt the gut barrier, leading to increased levels of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). These PAMPs trigger the recruitment and activation of immune ...
