Choose the correct answer
Which of the following is an extracellular soluble PRR?
”Explanation”
Collectin and Mannose binding lectin are extracellular soluble C-type lectins. Mannose binding lectin is synthesized in the liver and is an acute phase protein. Collectin is produced by a range of tissues including the liver for the serum and other tissues for epithelial surfaces e.g. kidney renal tubules. Collectins opsonize bound microbes, activate complement and can act as DAMPs as well
