Abstract: With the research progress of classical pathogen associated molecular patterns(PAMPs) from pathogenic microbes, the presence of the parasite PAMPs has been confirmed. The parasite PAMPs show some differences from classical PAMPs in molecular structures, receptor binding ways, intracellular signal transduction pathways, and induced effects. This review focuses on the issues of parasite PAMPs.

Key words: Parasite, Pathogen associated molecular pattern, Pattern recognition receptor, Innate immunity
