Current Biology, 2011 SummaryBeginning with the physical barrier presented by the epithelium, infectious agents such as viruses and bacteria encounter an array of cellular and molecular countermeasures that evolved within the host to resist them. Host immune responses are of two types, termed innate and adaptive.

Toll-Like Receptors in Neurodegeneration [PDF]
Brain Research Reviews, 2009 Innate pattern recognition receptors are implicated in first-line defense against pathogens but also participate in maintenance of tissue homeostasis and response to injury. This chapter reviews the role of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) in neuronal and glial responses that are associated with neurodegeneration.

Role of Toll Like Receptor 4 in Alzheimer’s Disease
Frontiers in Immunology, 2020 Long-term evidence has confirmed the involvement of an inflammatory component in neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This view is supported, in part, by data suggesting that selected non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ...

Toll-like Receptors and the Eye [PDF]
Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2006 The immune response to microbial pathogens relies on both innate and adaptive components.1 The innate or immediate response is mediated in large measure by leukocytes of the blood, such as neutrophils (PMNs) and macrophages, cells that phagocytose and kill the pathogens and that concurrently coordinate additional host responses by synthesis of a wide ...

Could an endoneurial endothelial crosstalk between Wnt/β-catenin and Sonic Hedgehog pathways underlie the early disruption of the infra-orbital blood-nerve barrier following chronic constriction injury? [PDF]
, 2017 BackgroundBlood–nerve barrier disruption is pivotal in the development of neuroinflammation, peripheral sensitization, and neuropathic pain after peripheral nerve injury.

Toll-like receptor 2 or toll-like receptor 4 deficiency does not modify lupus in MRLlpr mice.
PLoS ONE, 2013 Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease with a high morbidity and nephritis is a common manifestation. Previous studies in murine lupus models have suggest a role for Toll-like receptor 2 and 4.

Interaction between Cannabinoid System and Toll-Like Receptors Controls Inflammation [PDF]
, 2016 Since the discovery of the endocannabinoid system consisting of cannabinoid receptors, endogenous ligands, and biosynthetic and metabolizing enzymes, interest has been renewed in investigating the promise of cannabinoids as therapeutic agents.

Toll-Like Receptor Signaling [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013 Toll-like receptors sense pathogen-associated molecular patterns (e.g., lipopolysaccharides) and trigger gene-expression changes that ultimately eradicate the invading microbes.

Lipopolysaccharide as trigger of platelet aggregation via eicosanoid over-production [PDF]
, 2017 The effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on platelet aggregation is still controversial. We performed in vitro and ex vivo studies in controls and in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) to assess the effect of LPS on platelet activation (PA ...
