The glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) is the main human receptor for R. arrhizus on endothelial and nasal epithelial cells. High glucose, iron overload, or acidotic environments increase GRP78 expression, increasing fungal binding and uptake. These conditions are found during hyperglycaemic conditions such as acute diabetic ketoacidosis or chronic uncontrolled diabetes. Highly expressed GRP78 in endothelial and nasal epithelial cells would explain the presentation as rhino-orbital-cerebral mucormycosis seen mainly in individuals with diabetes. However, in alveolar epithelial cells, R. arrhizus germlings bind to an⍺ 3β1 integrin heterodimer instead of GRP78, and⍺ 3β1 integrin is considered the specific receptor for Mucorales in the lung. Further, β1 integrin signalling triggers the activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), allowing endocytosis of germlings by alveolar cells and subsequent cell damage.The main Mucorales Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPs) are the spore coat protein homologues (CotH), which confer the ability to invade host cells (invasins). CotH3 in R. arrhizus germlings is the fungal ligand for GRP78, while CotH7 is the cell surface ligand for⍺ 3β1 integrin in alveolar cells. The different anatomic distribution of receptors and their corresponding fungal epitopes has been proposed to explain the differences in clinical syndromes seen between individuals living with haematological malignancies and individuals with diabetes.
