Vitamin D3 down-regulates intracellular Toll-like receptor 9 expression and Toll-like receptor 9-induced IL-6 production in human monocytes [PDF]

open access: yesRheumatology, 2010
To determine whether vitamin D(3) modulates monocytic expression of intracellular Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 3, 7 and 9.Human monocytes were isolated from peripheral blood and cultured with 100 nM vitamin D(3) for 24, 48 and 72 h. Expression of CD14 and TLR2, TLR3, TLR4, TLR7 and TLR9 were examined by flow cytometry.

Activation of Toll-like Receptor 2 (TLR2) induces Interleukin-6 trans-signaling [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
AbstractSignaling of the pleiotropic cytokine Interleukin-6 (IL-6) via its soluble IL-6R (sIL-6R) has been termed trans-signaling and is thought to be responsible for the pro-inflammatory properties of IL-6. The sIL-6R can be generated by alternative mRNA splicing or proteolytic cleavage of the membrane-bound IL-6R. However, which stimuli induce sIL-6R

Upregulation of HMGB1 promotes vascular dysfunction in the soft palate of patients with obstructive sleep apnea via the TLR4/NF‐κB/VEGF pathway

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2023
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by the collapse of the soft palate in the upper airway, resulting in chronic intermittent hypoxia during sleep.

A Toll for lupus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Toll-like receptor (TLR)-9 recognizes CpG motifs in microbial DNA. TLR9 signalling stimulates innate antimicrobial immunity and modulates adaptive immune responses including autoimmunity against chromatin, e.g., in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE ...

Toll-like receptors 2 and 6 mediate apoptosis and inflammation in ischemic skeletal myotubes [PDF]

open access: yesVascular Medicine, 2019
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is associated with skeletal muscle damage. However, the pathophysiology of the muscle damage is poorly understood. Toll-like receptors (TLR) have been attributed to play a role in ischemia-induced tissue damage but their role in skeletal muscle damage in CLI is unknown.

Rice sprouts exert immunostimulatory activity in mouse macrophages, RAW264.7 cells

open access: yesFood and Agricultural Immunology, 2021
Rice sprouts are reported to have potential as a functional food agent for health promotion, but studies on the biological activity of rice sprouts are insufficient. Thus, in this study, we investigated whether WERS exhibits immunostimulatory activity in

Pharmacological Inhibition of Toll-Like Receptor-4 Signaling by TAK242 Prevents and Induces Regression of Experimental Organ Fibrosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a poorly understood heterogeneous condition with progressive multi-organ fibrosis. Recent genetic and genomic evidence suggest a pathogenic role for dysregulated innate immunity and toll-like receptor (TLR) activity in SSc ...

Myeloid cells protect corneal nerves against sterile injury through negative-feedback regulation of TLR2–IL-6 axis

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2023
Background Mounting evidence suggests that the immune system plays detrimental or protective roles in nerve injury and repair. Main body Herein we report that both CD11bhiLy6Ghi and CD11bhiLy6ChiLy6Glo myeloid cells are required to protect corneal nerves

Effect of smoking on the genetic makeup of toll-like receptors 2 and 6

open access: yesOncoTargets and Therapy, 2016
Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for lung cancer, asthma, and oral cancer, and is central to the altered innate immune responsiveness to infection. Many hypotheses have provided evidence that cigarette smoking induces more genetic changes in genes involved in the development of many cigarette-related diseases. This alteration may be from single-

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.
