TLRs and chronic inflammation [PDF]
After the discovery of Toll-like receptors (TLRs), innate immune mechanisms came back in the focus of scientific research. With more and more mechanisms of TLR biology known, it has become clear that these and also other innate immune receptors are not only of crucial importance in the immune response to invading pathogens, but also play a role in the ...

Of Flies and Men—The Discovery of TLRs
In 2011, the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to three immunologists: Bruce A. Beutler, Jules A. Hoffmann, and Ralph M. Steinman. While Steinman was honored for his work on dendritic cells and adaptive immunity, Beutler and Hoffman received the prize for their contributions to discoveries in innate immunity. In 1996, Hoffmann found the

Toll-like receptors and their role in the pathogenesis of myasthenia gravis: a comprehensive review [PDF]
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disorder marked by autoantibody-mediated dysfunction at the neuromuscular junction, resulting in fluctuating muscle weakness. The pathogenesis of MG involves a complex interplay between genetic

The Toll-like receptor (TLR) family plays an instructive role in innate immune responses against microbial pathogens, as well as the subsequent induction of adaptive immune responses. TLRs recognize specific molecular patterns found in a broad range of microbial pathogens such as bacteria and viruses, triggering inflammatory and antiviral responses and

Role of Toll-Like Receptors in Neuroimmune Diseases: Therapeutic Targets and Problems
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a class of proteins playing a key role in innate and adaptive immune responses. TLRs are involved in the development and progression of neuroimmune diseases via initiating inflammatory responses.
