Mendes ME, Baggio-Zappia GL, Brunialti MK, Fernandes Mda L, Rapozo MM, Salomao R: Differential expression of toll-like receptor signaling cascades in LPS-tolerant human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Immunobiology 2011, 216:285-295.
In TLR signaling, several negative regulators that function to prevent ligand-receptor binding, degrade the target protein, and inhibit recruitment or transcription of intermediates have been identified (Yuk & Jo,2011). Soluble forms of TLRs (sTLRs) play a central role in the regulation of inflamm...
All Toll-like Receptor Products What is the Difference Between PAMPS and DAMPS? PAMPs are derived from micro-organisms and drive inflammation in response to infections. One well-known PAMP islipopolysaccharide(LPS), which is found on the outer cell wall of gram-negative bacteria. DAMPs are derive...
anddouble stranded RNA. The intracellular region contains a Toll/IL-1 receptor (TIR) domain. The TIR domain provides an intracellular scaffold that interacts with a number of “adapter” proteins to initiate and integrate well-defined signaling cascades, resulting in cellular activation and the produ...
components. They are composed of an extracellular domain containing leucine-rich repeats and a cytoplasmic Toll/interleukin-1 receptor/resistance (TIR) domain that is responsible for mediating downstream signaling cascades and subsequent inflammatory response, ultimately leading to the eradication of ...
TLRs become activated and trigger intracellular signaling cascades, the result of which is the activation of the inflammatory response and activation of both innate and adaptive immune systems. The ultimate aim of TLR activation is, therefore, to facilitate host protection through either the destruction...
Immune and epithelial cells express TLR3, a receptor deputed to respond to microbial signals activating the immune response. The prognostic value of TLR3 in cancer is debated and no data are currently available in NSCLC, for which therapeutic approaches

MyD88-dependent TLR/IL-1R signaling.TLR/IL-R activation leads to the association of MyD88 (myleoid differentiation primary-response protein 88), which can be enhanced by the presence of MAL (MyD88 adaptor-like) (TLR4 signaling only). As a result, IRAK1 and IRAK4 (interleukin-1 receptor-...
As alluded to above, TLR signaling pathways are quite complex. Following recognition of a ligand by a specific TLR, the adaptor protein TIRAP/MyD88, which interacts with all of the TLRs except TLR3, initiates intracellular signaling cascades leading to downstream activation of IL-1 receptor-assoc...
