Toll-like receptor-mediated signaling cascade as a regulator of the inflammation network during alcoholic liver disease [PDF]
Chronic abuse of alcohol leads to various histological abnormalities in the liver. These are conditions collectively known as alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Currently, ALD is considered to be one of the major causes of death worldwide.

Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) α Increases Collagen Accumulation and Proliferation in Intestinal Myofibroblasts via TNF Receptor 2 [PDF]
Intestinal fibrosis is an incurable complication of Crohn's disease involving increased numbers of collagen-producing myofibroblasts. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha has defined proinflammatory roles in Crohn's disease but its role in fibrosis is unclear.

Toll-like receptor signaling adapter proteins govern spread of neuropathic pain and recovery following nerve injury in male mice. [PDF]
BackgroundSpinal Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and signaling intermediaries have been implicated in persistent pain states. We examined the roles of two major TLR signaling pathways and selected TLRs in a mononeuropathic allodynia.MethodsL5 spinal nerve ...

Stimulation of microglial metabotropic glutamate receptor mGlu2 triggers tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced neurotoxicity in concert with microglial-derived fas ligand [PDF]
Activated microglia may be detrimental to neuronal survival in a number of neurodegenerative diseases. Thus, strategies that reduce microglial neurotoxicity may have therapeutic benefit.

Hypoxia Preconditioning Increases Survival and Decreases Expression of Toll-like Receptor 4 in Pulmonary Artery Endothelial Cells Exposed to Lipopolysaccharide [PDF]
Pulmonary or systemic infections and hypoxemic respiratory failure are among the leading causes of admission to intensive care units, and these conditions frequently exist in sequence or in tandem.

Prolonged reductions in synaptic inputs to phrenic motor neurons results in the release of spinal, soluble TNFα (sTNFα) to initiate a long lasting increase in phrenic burst amplitude termed inactivity‐induced phrenic motor facilitation (iPMF). TNFα can activate TNF‐R1 or TNF‐R2, which are two distinct cell surface receptors that tend to initiate ...

Differential regulation of TNF receptor 1 and receptor 2 in adiponectin expression following myocardial ischemia [PDF]
In vitro experiments demonstrate that adiponectin, a cardioprotective cytokine, is inhibited by tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα). However, the role of TNFα in post-myocardial infarction (post-MI) adiponectin reduction remains unclear. More importantly, the TNF receptor type (TNFR1 or TNFR2) responsible for TNFα-mediated suppression of adiponectin ...
