IRAK-M has effects in regulation of lung epithelial inflammation [PDF]
Background Epithelial barrier is important for asthma development by shaping immune responses. Airway expressing-IL-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK)-M of Toll-like receptor pathway was involved in immunoregulation of airway inflammation through ...

Effect of IRAK-M on Airway Inflammation Induced by Cigarette Smoking [PDF]
Background. IRAK-M, negatively regulating Toll-like receptor, is shown the dual properties in the varied disease contexts. We studied the effect of IRAK-M deficiency on cigarette smoking- (CS-) induced airway inflammation under acute or subacute ...

IRAK-M regulation and function in host defense and immune homeostasis [PDF]
Antigen presenting cells (APCs) of the innate immune system sense a wide range of pathogens via pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). Engagement of certain PRRs can induce production of pro-inflammatory mediators that facilitate effective clearance of ...

IRAK-M Regulates Monocyte Trafficking to the Lungs in Response to Bleomycin Challenge. [PDF]
Abstract Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a deadly disease characterized by excessive extracellular matrix deposition in the lungs, resulting in decreased pulmonary function. Although epithelial cells and fibroblasts have long been the focus of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis research, the role of various subpopulations of macrophages in ...

Neutrophils Deficient in Innate Suppressor IRAK-M Enhances Anti-tumor Immune Responses. [PDF]
Tumor-associated immune-suppressive neutrophils are prevalent in various cancers, including colorectal cancer. However, mechanisms of immune-suppressive neutrophils are not well understood. We report that a key innate suppressor, IRAK-M (interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase M), is critically involved in the establishment of immune-suppressive ...

Critical Role of IRAK-M in Regulating Antigen-Induced Airway Inflammation. [PDF]
Asthma is an airway epithelium disorder involving allergic lung inflammation. IL-1 receptor-associated kinase M (IRAK-M) is a negative regulator of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling on airway epithelial cells and macrophages, and it is known to limit the overproduction of cytokines during the inflammatory process. However, the direct role of IRAK-M in

Changes in plasma IRAK-M in patients with prediabetes and its relationship with related metabolic indexes: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
Objective To investigate whether IL-1R-associated kinase (IRAK)-M is associated with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods In this cross-sectional study, enrolled subjects were assigned to different groups according to their fasting plasma ...

IRAK-M deficiency promotes the development of type 1 diabetes in NOD mice. [PDF]
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is an organ-specific autoimmune disease characterized by progressive destruction of insulin-secreting pancreatic β-cells. Both T-cell–mediated adaptive responses as well as innate immune processes are involved in pathogenesis.

The structure function of the death domain of human IRAK-M. [PDF]
IRAK-M is an inhibitor of Toll-like receptor signaling that acts by re-directing IRAK-4 activity to TAK1 independent NF-κB activation and by inhibition of IRAK-1/IRAK-2 activity. IRAK-M is expressed in monocytes/macrophages and lung epithelial cells. Lack of IRAK-M in mice greatly improves the resistance to nosocomial pneumonia and lung tumors, which ...
