Association of the ASP299GLY TLR4 polymorphism with COPD [PDF]

Respiratory Medicine, 2006
Bacterial infection and colonization plays an important role in COPD. The inflammatory response to these bacteria is mediated by Toll-like receptors. The Asp299Gly polymorphism of the Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) has been shown to be associated with decreased lipopolysaccharide (LPS) signal transduction resulting in impaired antimicrobial defense ...

Fluid Shear‐Controlled Pro/Anti‐Inflammatory Osteomodulatory Construct for Drug‐Free Immune Activation Through Cationic Ion Channel Activation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed PCL scaffold coated with Arginine was laminated with electrospun polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers containing cationic cellulose nanocrystals (PVA@cCNC). This created nanoisland‐like regions of aligned and random cCNC‐rich fibers. The composite scaffold, under fluid shear stimulation, modulated macrophage polarization from M1 to M2 ...

Meisoindigo Protects Against Focal Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury by Inhibiting NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and Regulating Microglia/Macrophage Polarization via TLR4/NF-κB Signaling Pathway

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Ischemic stroke is a devastating disease with long-term disability. However, the pathogenesis is unclear and treatments are limited. Meisoindigo, a second-generation derivative of indirubin, has general water solubility and is well-tolerated.

The Evolutionary History of TLR4 Polymorphisms in Europe [PDF]

Journal of Innate Immunity, 2011
Infections exert important evolutionary pressures shaping the human genome, especially on genes involved in host defense. A crucial step for host defense is recognition of pathogens by pattern recognition receptors on innate immune cells, among which Toll-like receptor 4 (<i>TLR4)</i> is one of the best known.
