PG - 21 LID - 10.12688/f1000research.12679.1 [doi] LID - 21 AB - Macrophages (MOs) are a key cell type of both the innate and the adaptive immune response and can tailor their response to prevailing conditions. To sense the host's status, MOs employ two classes of receptors: Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which are sensors for pathogen-derived material, and Fcgamma receptors (FcgammaRs) that are detectors of the adaptive immune response. How MOs integrate the input from these various sensors is not understood and is the focus of active study. Here, we review the recent literature on the molecular mechanisms of TLR and FcgR crosstalk and synergy, and discuss the implications of these findings. This overview suggests a multilayered mechanism of receptor synergy that allows the MO to fine-tune its response to prevailing conditions and provides ideas for future investigation.
