The tumor microenvironment of colorectal cancer: stromal TLR-4 expression as a potential prognostic marker [PDF]
Background: Colorectal cancer can be efficiently treated when found at early stages, thus the search for novel markers is of paramount importance. Since inflammation is associated with cancer progression and angiogenesis, we investigated expression of ...

The Distinctive Activation of Toll-Like Receptor 4 in Human Samples with Sepsis
Clinical success of Toll-Like receptor-4 (TLR-4) antagonists in sepsis therapy has thus far been lacking. As inhibition of a receptor can only be useful if the receptor is active, stratification of patients with active TLR-4 would be desirable.

TLR-4 ligation of dendritic cells is sufficient to drive pathogenic T cell function in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis [PDF]
Background Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) depends on the initial activation of CD4+ T cells responsive to myelin autoantigens. The key antigen presenting cell (APC) population that drives the activation of naïve T cells most efficiently ...

Effect of Pharmacological Blocking of TLR-4 on Osteoarthritis in Mice [PDF]
Receptors for Advanced Glycation End Products (RAGE) and Toll Like Receptor 4 (TLR-4) have been shown to play a role in the development of Osteoarthritis (OA). We have previously shown that knocking out RAGE in mice slows the disease progression in articular cartilage of the knee.

Toll-like receptor-2 deficiency enhances non-alcoholic steatohepatitis [PDF]
Background Previously we reported that mice deficient in toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) signalling were protected from diet-induced non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
