A History of Recurrent Positive Selection at the Toll-Like Receptor 5 in Primates [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2009
Many genes involved in immunity evolve rapidly. It remains unclear, however, to what extent pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) of the innate immune system in vertebrates are subject to recurrent positive selection imposed by pathogens, as suggested by studies in Drosophila, or whether they are evolutionarily constrained.

Stellate ganglion block reduces inflammation and improves neurological function in diabetic rats during ischemic stroke

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2022
Diabetes mellitus is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke. Both diabetes mellitus and stroke are linked to systemic inflammation that aggravates patient outcomes.

Regulation of Toll-like receptor 5 gene expression and function on mucosal dendritic cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Toll-like receptor (TLR) 5 has been shown to maintain intestinal homeostasis and regulate host defense against enterobacterial infection. However, how TLR5 expression is regulated and its function in the intestine have not been fully elucidated.

LRR-containing receptors regulating plant development and defense [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Despite the presence of more than 400 genes that encode receptor-like kinases (RLKs) in the Arabidopsis thaliana genome, very little is known about the range of biological processes that they control, or the mechanisms by which they function. This review

Activation of Toll-Like Receptor 5 Immune Signaling by HMGB1 [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2016
Human High Mobility Group Box-1 (HMGB-1) is an ubiquitously expressed nuclear protein which primarily functions as an architectural chromatin binding factor that binds to DNA in a structure specific manner. Recently, it has been linked to the pathogenesis of several inflammatory diseases regulating the innate immune system by two specific toll-like ...

Toll-like receptor-mediated signaling cascade as a regulator of the inflammation network during alcoholic liver disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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.

Chicken Toll-like Receptor 3 Recognizes Its Cognate Ligand When Ectopically Expressed in Human Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Recognition of pathogens by toll-like receptors (TLRs) causes activation of signaling cascades that trigger cytokine secretion and, ultimately, innate immunity.
