IRAK-M Is a Negative Regulator of Toll-like Receptor Signaling [PDF]
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) detect microorganisms and protect multicellular organisms from infection. TLRs transduce their signals through MyD88 and the serine/threonine kinase IRAK. The IRAK family consists of two active kinases, IRAK and IRAK-4, and two inactive kinases, IRAK-2 and IRAK-M.

Structural anomalies in a published NMR-derived structure of IRAK-M
Signaling by Toll-Like Receptors and the Interleukin-1 Receptor (IL1-R) involves intracellular binding of MyD88, followed by assembly of IL1-R Associated Kinases (IRAKs) into the so-called Myddosome. Using NMR, Nechama et al. determined the structure of the IRAK-M death domain monomer (PDBid: 5UKE).

Interleukin Receptor Associated Kinase 1 Signaling and Its Association with Cardiovascular Diseases
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R) directly interact with intracellular interleukin receptor associated kinase (IRAK) family members to initialize innate immune and inflammatory responses following activation by pathogen ...

IRAK-M Associates with Susceptibility to Adult-Onset Asthma and Promotes Chronic Airway Inflammation. [PDF]
Abstract IL-1R–associated kinase (IRAK)-M regulates lung immunity during asthmatic airway inflammation. However, the regulatory effect of IRAK-M differs when airway inflammation persists. A positive association between IRAK-M polymorphisms with childhood asthma has been reported.

Induction of IRAK-M Is Associated with Lipopolysaccharide Tolerance in a Human Endotoxemia Model [PDF]
Abstract Recent in vitro and murine in vivo studies have identified several potential LPS tolerance factors. In this study, we describe the expression kinetics of these LPS tolerance factors in standardized human endotoxemia models using i.v. LPS bolus administration.

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.

Endogenous IRAK-M attenuates postinfarction remodeling through effects on macrophages and fibroblasts. [PDF]
Objective— Effective postinfarction repair requires timely suppression of innate immune signals to prevent the catastrophic consequences of uncontrolled inflammation on cardiac geometry and function. In macrophages, interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK)-M acts as a functional decoy preventing uncontrolled toll-like ...

Staphylococcus aureus inhibits complement activity by secreting a variety of toxins. However, the underlying mechanism of complement component regulation by lipoteichoic acid (LTA), a cell wall component of S. aureus, has not been elucidated.
