Effects of JWH015 in cytokine secretion in primary human keratinocytes and fibroblasts and its suitability for topical/transdermal delivery

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2017
Background JWH015 is a cannabinoid (CB) receptor type 2 agonist that produces immunomodulatory effects. Since skin cells play a key role in inflammatory conditions and tissue repair, we investigated the ability of JWH015 to promote an anti-inflammatory ...

The promotion of nephropathy by Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide via toll-like receptors

open access: yesDiabetology & Metabolic Syndrome, 2017
Background Recently, we reported that toll-like receptor (TLR)2 and TLR4 localized on the glomerular endothelium in the glomeruli of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetic mice and high fat diet feed-induced type 2 diabetic mice, and that ...

Regulation of IL-1 Receptor-Associated Kinases by Lipopolysaccharide [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2002
Abstract IL-1R-associated kinase (IRAK) plays a pivotal role in IL-1R/Toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated signaling and NF-κB activation. IRAK from leukocytes undergoes rapid activation and inactivation/degradation following IL-1 or LPS stimulation.

Neurochemical Changes in the Mouse Hippocampus Underlying the Antidepressant Effect of Genetic Deletion of P2X7 Receptors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Recent investigations have revealed that the genetic deletion of P2X7 receptors (P2rx7) results in an antidepressant phenotype in mice. However, the link between the deficiency of P2rx7 and changes in behavior has not yet been explored.

Signal transduction by the lipopolysaccharide receptor, Toll‐like receptor‐4

open access: yesImmunology, 2004
SummaryAn understanding of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) signal transduction is a key goal in the effort to provide a molecular basis for the lethal effect of LPS during septic shock and point the way to novel therapies. Rapid progress in this field during the last 6 years has resulted in the discovery of not only the receptor for LPS – Toll‐like receptor 4

Structure-Function Analysis of CD14 as a Soluble Receptor for Lipopolysaccharide [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
CD14 is a glycophosphatidylinositol-linked protein expressed by myeloid cells and also circulates as a plasma protein lacking the glycophosphatidylinositol anchor. Both membrane and soluble CD14 function to enhance activation of cells by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which we refer to as receptor function.

Regulation of macrophage function in inflammation and atherosclerosis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
Atherosclerosis can be considered as both a chronic inflammatory disease and a lipid metabolism disorder. Innate immunity pathways have long been suspected to contribute to the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis.

Prenatal activation of toll-like receptors-3 by administration of the viral mimetic poly(I:C) changes synaptic proteins, N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors and neurogenesis markers in offspring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background - There is mounting evidence for a neurodevelopmental basis for disorders such as autism and schizophrenia, in which prenatal or early postnatal events may influence brain development and predispose the young to develop these and related ...

Propofol exerts anti-inflammatory effects in rats with lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury by inhibition of CD14 and TLR4 expression

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2013
We investigated the effect of propofol (Prop) administration (10 mg kg-1 h-1, intravenously) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury and its effect on cluster of differentiation (CD) 14 and Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 ...

Characterisation of bovine leukocyte Ig-like receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) are innate immune receptors involved in regulating both innate and adaptive immune functions. LILR show more interspecies conservation than the closely related Killer Ig-like receptors, and homologues have ...
