One of its principal components is the array of pathogen-associated molecular pattern detectors known as the Toll-Like Receptors (TLRs)-germline-encoded type one transmembrane receptors of ancient lineage that are expressed on numerous cell types, and are the focus of this chapter. This chapter ...
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a family of pattern recognition receptors that recognize conserved structures that are associated with infection or tissue damage. Activation of TLRs promotes inflammatory responses. Latest Research and Reviews The TLR7/9 adaptors TASL and TASL2 mediate IRF5-dependent ant...

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize a variety of evolutionarily conserved microbial molecules called pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) to initiate an intracellular signaling cascade that activates the innate immune response. First identified inDrosophila, TLRs were found to be conserved in hum...
Structure-function relationships of Toll-like receptor domains through homology modelling and molecular dynamics. Biochem Soc Trans. 2007; 35 :1515–1518.Kubarenko A, Frank M and Weber AN: Structure-function relationships of Toll-like receptor domains through homol- ogy modelling and molecular ...
In mammals, receptors structurally related to Toll, termed Toll-like receptor (TLR), are expressed and recognize a variety of PAMPs. Different TLRs are expressed in a tissue-specific manner on plasma or endosomal membranes (Figure 1). TLRs share a common extracellular structure, termed leucine-...

Recognition of pathogens is mediated by a set of germline-encoded receptors that are referred to as pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs). These receptors recognize conserved molecular patterns (pathogen-associated molecular patterns), which are shared by
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) act as sentinels of the innate immune system, sensing a variety of ligands from lipopolysaccharide to flagellin to dsRNA through their ligand-binding domain that is composed of leucine-rich repeats (LRRs). Ligand binding initiates a signaling cascade that leads to the ...
These PRRs respond to a variety of exogenous pathogens or endogenous danger signals, by recognizing some highly conserved structures such as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and danger/damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs).The most studied PRRs are Toll-like receptors (TLRs)....
