TLR4 rs1927914 polymorphism contributes to serum TLR4 levels in patients with aortic aneurysm
Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is a crucial regulator of inflammatory reactions and vascular remodeling. Elevated TLR4 expression has been proved to be correlated with an increased risk of aortic aneurysm (AA). This study aimed to explore the influence of TLR4 gene polymorphisms on TLR4 expression levels and its probable functional significance in AA ...

Delayed Resolution of Acute Inflammation in Ulcerative Colitis Is Associated with Elevated Cytokine Release Downstream of TLR4 [PDF]
Background: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is widely viewed as a leukocyte-mediated disorder. Although strong evidence implicates an exuberant response to microbial components in its pathogenesis, no intrinsic immune defect has been identified and the ...

Ivermectin decreases inflammation and imiquimod–induced psoriasis-like skin lesions in rat via targeting TLR4 / p65 NF-κB [PDF]
Objective(s): Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease that usually manifests as white and silver spots on the skin. Because of its anti-inflammatory properties, we investigated the effects of ivermectin (IVM) on imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis in rats ...

Association between TLR4 and PTEN Involved in LPS-TLR4 Signaling Response
In this study, we explored the potential mechanisms of how PTEN regulating LPS induced TLR4 signaling pathway. The initial findings from ELISA demonstrate that PTEN influences TNF-αsecretion by its lipid phosphatase activity. Subsequently, western blot, immunoprecipitation assay, and immunofluorescence were performed to explore the activation process ...

TLR4-dependent stimulation of IFN-β by ProTα variants.
(A) IFN-β, (B) IL-6, and (C) TNF-α expression was measured by RT-qPCR on cDNAs from wild type and TLR4-/- mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages treated with 200 ng/ml of different ProTα variants for 2 h. Though at lower levels, TNF-α remains inducible by

Toll-like receptor 4 and NOD2/CARD15 mutations in Hungarian patients with Crohn's disease: Phenotype-genotype correlations [PDF]
AIM: To determine common NOD2/CARD15 mutations and TLR4 D299G polymorphism in Hungarian patients with CD. METHODS: A total of 527 unrelated patients with CD (male/female: 265/262, age: 37.1 (SD 7.6) years) and 200 healthy subjects were included.

Polymorphisms of TLR4: Rapid Genotyping and Reduced Response to Lipopolysaccharide of TLR4 Mutant Alleles [PDF]
AbstractBackground: Pathogen recognition receptors such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns, lead to the activation of innate immunity. Genetic variations in these receptors may lead to an altered host immune response to pathogens.Methods: We developed homogeneous fluorescence-based PCR assays as well ...
