Polymorphisms in vitamin D receptor, toll-like receptor 2 and Toll-Like receptor 4 genes links with Dengue susceptibility [PDF]
Host genetic factors are known to determine disease susceptibility in dengue virus infection. Therefore, in this study association of gene polymorphisms of Vitamin D Receptor [rs731236 (Taq) and rs7975232(Apa1)], Toll-like receptor 2 [rs5743708(Arg735Gln) and rs5743704(Pro631His)] and Toll-like receptor 4 [rs4986790A/G(Asp299Gly13843) and rs4986791 C/T(

Polymorphisms of toll-like receptor 2 and 4 genes in Chagas disease
The aim of this study was to test the possible implication of toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and TLR4 gene polymorphisms in determining the susceptibility to Chagas' disease. Genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length

Expression and function of toll-like receptor 2 in vertebrate
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are essential for identifying and detecting pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) produced by a variety of pathogens, including viruses and bacteria. Since TLR2 is the only TLR capable of creating functional heterodimers with more than two other TLR types, it is very important for vertebrate immunity.

The expression of TLR2 and TLR4 in the kidneys and heart of mice infected with Acanthamoeba spp.
Background Acanthamoeba spp. are cosmopolitan protozoans that cause infections in the brain, as well as extracerebral infections in the cornea, lungs and skin.

Toll-like receptor 2 and type 2 diabetes
Innate immunity plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and related complications. Since the toll-like receptors (TLRs) are central to innate immunity, it appears that they are important participants in the development and pathogenesis of the disease.

Modulation of atherosclerosis in mice by Toll-like receptor 2 [PDF]
Epidemiologic evidence has established a relationship between microbial infection and atherosclerosis. Mammalian TLRs provide clues on the mechanism of this inflammatory cascade. TLR2 has a large ligand repertoire that includes bacterial-derived exogenous and possibly host-derived endogenous ligands.
