P fimbriae and
type 1 fimbriae use different receptors and different TLR4 signalling pathways. P fimbriae bind to
the Gala1-4Galb receptor
epitope in the globoseries of glycosphingolipids (GSLs) and activate epithelial cells through TLR4 in
an LPS-independent, Ser/Thr
protein kinases-dependent manner and by the release of ceramide. Type 1 fimbriae bind mannose
residues (aMan) on glycoproteins
and also activate epithelial cells through TLR4, but with the involvement of a tyrosine protein
kinase and LPS.
P fimbriated
bacteria trigger a significant host response in the murine
urinary tract (Linder et al., 1988, 1991). The response is
primarily innate rather than specific, and involves the
activation of chemokines and the recruitment of
neutrophils
P fimbriae promote
bacterial persistence and enhance the mucosal host
response, while type 1 fimbriae do not appear to
influence the establishment of bacteriuria or trigger a
mucosal host response in the human urinary tract in this
way.
