MicroRNAs and Toll-like Receptor/Interleukin-1 Receptor Signaling
The discovery of miRNAs has revolutionized the way we examine the genome, RNA products, and the regulation of transcription and translation. Their ability to modulate protein expression through mRNA degradation and translation repression resulted in avid

Distinct immune signatures in directly treated and distant tumors result from TLR adjuvants and focal ablation. [PDF]
Both adjuvants and focal ablation can alter the local innate immune system and trigger a highly effective systemic response. Our goal is to determine the impact of these treatments on directly treated and distant disease and the mechanisms for the ...

Sequence variants of toll like receptor 4 and late-onset Alzheimer's disease.
BackgroundToll like receptor 4 (TLR4) has been related to inflammation and beta-amyloid deposition in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain. No study has explored the association between haplotype-tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (htSNPs) of TLR4 and AD ...

Toll-like receptor 4 mediates synergism between alcohol and HCV in hepatic oncogenesis involving stem cell marker Nanog [PDF]
Alcohol synergistically enhances the progression of liver disease and the risk for liver cancer caused by hepatitis C virus (HCV). However, the molecular mechanism of this synergy remains unclear.

Toll‐like receptor 4 polymorphisms in Saudi population with cardiovascular diseases
Background Toll‐like receptors play a substantial role in innate immunity and the effects of TLR4 genetic variants on cardiovascular diseases are still largely unknown.

Hypoallergenic fragment of Par j 2 increases functional expression of Toll-like receptors in atopic children [PDF]
Parietaria judaica (Par j) is one of the main causes of allergy in the Mediterranean countries. The activation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) inhibits nasal inflammation of atopic ...

Toll‐like receptor expression during inflammatory processes in human diseases
Multi‐cellular organisms, including humans, have evolved immune systems as defense mechanisms against pathogens. The immune system employs the Toll‐like receptor (TLR) family as its primary defensive mechanism against infections.
