Adipokinetic hormone enhances nodule formation and phenoloxidase activation in adult locusts injected with bacterial lipopolysaccharide [PDF]
, 2003 Interactions between the locust endocrine and immune systems have been studied in vivo in relation to nodule formation and activation of the prophenoloxidase cascade in the haemolymph.

Finding a Toll on the Route: The Fate of Osteoclast Progenitors After Toll-Like Receptor Activation
Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 M-CSF and RANKL are two crucial cytokines stimulating differentiation of mature, bone resorbing, multinucleated osteoclasts from mononucleated progenitor cells in the monocyte/macrophage lineage.

Sepsis-induced selective loss of NMDA receptors modulates hippocampal neuropathology in surviving septic mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Sepsis-induced neuroinflammation plays an important role in sepsis-related brain dysfunction. However, the molecules that are targeted during neuroinflammation resulting from sepsis-induced brain dysfunction remain unclear.

Resistin competes with lipopolysaccharide for binding to toll‐like receptor 4 [PDF]
Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2010 AbstractToll‐like receptors (TLRs) are a family of cellular structures activated by recognition of pathogen associated molecular sequences. The activation of TLRs triggers a variety of intracellular mechanisms aiming to protect the host from the invading microorganisms. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is the main ligand for TLR4. Here we show that resistin, a

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Calreticulin and Galectin-3 Opsonise Bacteria for Phagocytosis by Microglia
Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 Opsonins are soluble, extracellular proteins, released by activated immune cells, and when bound to a target cell, can induce phagocytes to phagocytose the target cell. There are three known classes of opsonin: antibodies, complement factors and secreted

Reversing Lipopolysaccharide Toxicity by Ligating the Macrophage Fcγ Receptors [PDF]
The Journal of Immunology, 2001 Abstract Our laboratory has previously demonstrated that the ligation of phagocytic receptors on macrophages can influence cytokine production. In this study, we examine the cytokine responses to multiple inflammatory stimuli following FcγR ligation. Macrophages were stimulated in vitro with LPS, lipoteichoic acid, CD40 ligand, or low

The role of toll-like receptors in the adrenal gland [PDF]
, 2010 Sepsis is caused by infection and often followed by an overwhelming inflammatory response. This can lead to shock, organ failure and even death. Each year approximately 60,000 people die in Germany due to sepsis.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
