TLR2 as a Therapeutic Target in Bacterial Infection

Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2020
Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 recognizes and responds to threats early in bacterial infections and can influence the downstream immune response to the host's benefit or detriment. Therapeutic modulation of TLR2 signaling represents an underutilized opportunity to moderate the immune response to infection to promote an improved outcome for the host.

From Adult to Adolescent: Alignment in Clinical Trials and Outcomes in Axial Spondyloarthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of chronic inflammatory diseases encompassing axial and peripheral forms, with up to 20% of patients developing symptoms before age 16. Despite this substantial pediatric burden, treatment options for juvenile‐onset SpA (JSpA), particularly those with axial disease (axJSpA), remain limited.

Gardiquimod Nanoemulsion Targets Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Lesions Reducing Systemic Toxicity and Parasite Burden

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Nanoemulsion delivery of a TLR7 agonist enhances safety and promotes colocalization with Leishmania‐infected macrophages in skin lesions, enabling a ∼2‐log reduction in parasite burden. However, tissue‐level constraints and TLR‐driven regulatory feedback generate a mixed immune response that limits complete parasite clearance.

Identification of a TLR2 Inhibiting Wheat Hydrolysate [PDF]

Molecular Nutrition & Food Research, 2018
ScopeWheat hydrolysates are used in medical nutrition to provide undernourished patients a readily digestible protein source, for instance to recover from chemotherapy‐induced intestinal mucosal inflammation. Since many hydrolysates of different sources can modulate the immune system, likely via Toll‐like receptors (TLRs), it is hypothesized that also ...

PRMT1‐Mediated LDHA Methylation Drives STAT3 Lactylation to Orchestrate Intestinal Inflammation and Tumorigenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies an immunometabolic axis wherein SAM‐driven PRMT1 methylates LDHA, enhancing its activity. The resultant lactate induces STAT3 K709 lactylation, which stabilizes an active conformation to promote STAT3 phosphorylation and IL‐10 expression.

Inhibition of Autoimmune Diabetes by TLR2 Tolerance [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2011
Abstract We have reported that apoptotic β cells undergoing secondary necrosis, called “late apoptotic (LA) β cells,” stimulated APCs and induced diabetogenic T cell priming through TLR2, which might be one of the initial events in autoimmune diabetes.

Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...

Divergent roles of amino acid residues inside and outside the BB loop affect human Toll-like receptor (TLR)2/2, TLR2/1 and TLR2/6 responsiveness. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
TLR2 specifically recognizes a wide range of ligands by homodimerizing or heterodimerizing with TLR1 or TLR6. However, the molecular basis of the specific signalling transduction induced by TLR2 homodimerization or heterodimerization with TLR1 or TLR6 is

Activation of Ca2+-Dependent Signaling by TLR2 [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2006
Abstract Upon contact with airway epithelial cells, bacterial products activate Ca2+ fluxes that are required for induction of NF-κB-dependent gene expression. TLR2 is apically displayed on airway cells, making it a likely transducer linking bacterial stimuli and kinases that affect Ca2+ release. Using biochemical and genetic approaches,

NMI Regulates Adipose Adaptive Thermogenesis Through TLR4/IRF3 Signaling to Promote Obesity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Adipose tissue‐derived NMI is secreted under metabolic stress and suppresses adaptive thermogenesis through TLR4/IRF3 signaling, repressing the PPARα/PGC‐1α/UCP1 thermogenic transcriptional program. Genetic ablation or anti ‐ NMI monoclonal antibody treatment enhances energy expenditure, protects against DIO, and ameliorates adipose tissue inflammation,
