A deimmunized and pharmacologically optimized Toll-like receptor 5 agonist for therapeutic applications [PDF]
Mett et al. describe development of GP532, a substantially deimmunized derivative of Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) agonist entolimod. GP532 has mutations eliminating key B- and T-cell epitopes and an inflammasome-activating domain yet remains a potent NF ...

Could an endoneurial endothelial crosstalk between Wnt/β-catenin and Sonic Hedgehog pathways underlie the early disruption of the infraorbital blood–nerve barrier following chronic constriction injury? [PDF]
Background Blood–nerve barrier disruption is pivotal in the development of neuroinflammation, peripheral sensitization, and neuropathic pain after peripheral nerve injury.

Activation of Toll-like receptor 5 in microglia modulates their function and triggers neuronal injury [PDF]
Microglia are the primary immune-competent cells of the central nervous system (CNS) and sense both pathogen- and host-derived factors through several receptor systems including the Toll-like receptor (TLR) family.

The role of the C-terminal D0 domain of flagellin in activation of Toll like receptor 5. [PDF]
Flagellin is a wide-spread bacterial virulence factor sensed by the membrane-bound Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) and by the intracellular NAIP5/NLRC4 inflammasome receptor.

Understanding the dynamics of Toll-like Receptor 5 response to flagellin and its regulation by estradiol. [PDF]
© 2017 The Author(s). Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are major players of the innate immune system. Once activated, they trigger a signalling cascade that leads to NF-ΰ B translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. Single cell analysis shows that NF-ΰ

Significant abundance of bacterial flagellin and expression of its surface localized receptor toll-like receptor 5 and cytokine interleukin-22 in South African infants with poor oral rotavirus vaccine take [PDF]
Bacterial flagellin, a potent intestinal innate immune activator, prevents murine rotavirus (RV) infection independent of adaptive immunity and interferons. The flagellin-induced immunity is mediated by Toll-like receptor (TLR5) and Nod-like receptor C4 (

Activated sympathetic nerve post stroke downregulates Toll-like receptor 5 and disrupts the gut mucosal barrier [PDF]
Summary: The gut permeability significantly increases after ischemic stroke, partly due to disrupted mucosal barrier, but the mechanism remains elusive.

Therapeutic Synergy Between Antibiotics and Pulmonary Toll-Like Receptor 5 Stimulation in Antibiotic-Sensitive or -Resistant Pneumonia [PDF]
Bacterial infections of the respiratory tract constitute a major cause of death worldwide. Given the constant rise in bacterial resistance to antibiotics, treatment failure is increasingly frequent.

Exploring the mechanism of intestinal bacterial translocation after severe acute pancreatitis: the role of Toll-like receptor 5 [PDF]
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP)-induced intestinal bacterial translocation and enterogenic infection are among the leading causes of mortality in patients.

Genetic diversity of Toll-like receptor 5 among pig populations [PDF]
The Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) recognizes flagellin of Gram-positive and -negative bacteria and plays an important role in the host defense system. Here, we surveyed single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the coding sequence of the porcine TLR5 gene ...
