DAMPs released from necrotic cell and their influence on the immune response

DAMPs Receptors Effect on the immune system References
ATP P2Y2, P2X7 “find-me” signal, induces IL-1β production, anti-tumor immunity [26, 37]
Calreticulin CD91 “eat-me” signal, involved in cell clearance, anti-tumor immunity [32, 47]
HSP70, HSP90, GP96, HSP60, HSP72, GRP78 CD91, TLR2, TLR4, SREC1 Involved in Ag chaperoning, attract Monocytes and neutrophils, activate DCs and NK cells [9, 98]
HMGB1 RAGE, TLR2, TLR4, TIM3 Involved in DC maturation and mobilization [88]
S100A8/S100A9 RAGE Attract monocytes and neutrophils, involved in tumor development [97]
