The Toll-like receptor 3:dsRNA signaling complex [PDF]
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize conserved molecular patterns in invading pathogens and trigger innate immune responses. TLR3 recognizes dsRNA, a molecular signature of most viruses via its ectodomain (ECD). The TLR3-ECD structure consists of a 23 turn coil bent into the shape of a horseshoe with specialized domains capping the N and C-terminal ...

Toll-like receptor 3 signaling attenuates liver regeneration # [PDF]
Abstract The current model for liver regeneration suggests that cell damage triggers Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling via MyD88, leading to the induction of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and secretion of inflammatory cytokines that in turn prime liver regeneration.

Risk stratification for cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection after kidney transplantation (KT) remains to be determined. Since endosomal toll-like receptors (TLRs) are involved in viral sensing, we investigated the impact of common single-nucleotide ...

Predicting novel features of toll-like receptor 3 signaling in macrophages. [PDF]
The Toll-like receptor (TLR) 3 plays a critical role in mammalian innate immune response against viral attacks by recognizing double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) or its synthetic analog polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly (IratioC)).

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is the etiological agent of chikungunya fever (CHIKF), a self-limiting disease characterized by myalgia and severe acute or chronic arthralgia. CHIKF is associated with immunopathology and high levels of pro-inflammatory factors.

Spinal toll like receptor 3 is involved in chronic pancreatitis-induced mechanical allodynia of rat
Background Mechanisms underlying pain in chronic pancreatitis (CP) are incompletely understood. Our previous data showed that astrocytes were actively involved. However, it was unclear how astrocytic activation was induced in CP conditions.

Toll-like Receptor 3 Activation Decreases Porcine Arterivirus Infection [PDF]
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is an RNA virus that initiates infection in pulmonary alveolar macrophages (PAMs), elicits weak immune responses, and establishes a persistent infection. To understand the role of dsRNA intermediates in eliciting host immunity, we sought to determine if toll-like receptor-3 (TLR3), a well ...

Polyinosinic Acid Is a Ligand for Toll-like Receptor 3 [PDF]
Innate immune responses are critical in controlling viral infections. Viral proteins and nucleic acids have been shown to be recognized by pattern recognition receptors of the Toll-like receptor (TLR) family, triggering downstream signaling cascades that lead to cellular activation and cytokine production.

The dsRNA binding site of human Toll-like receptor 3 [PDF]
Pathogen recognition by Toll-like receptors (TLRs) initiates innate immune responses that are essential for inhibiting pathogen dissemination and for the development of acquired immunity. The TLRs recognize pathogens with their N-terminal ectodomains (ECD), but the molecular basis for this recognition is not known.
