Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Signalling, sorting and scaffolding adaptors for Toll-like receptors

Journal of Cell Science, 2019
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are danger-sensing receptors that typically propagate self-limiting inflammatory responses, but can unleash uncontrolled inflammation in non-homeostatic or disease settings.

The application of Toll like receptors for cancer therapy

International Journal of Biological Sciences, 2010
Toll-like receptor (TLR) proteins play key roles in immune responses against infection. Using TLR proteins, host can recognize the conserved molecular structures found in pathogens called pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs).

Toll-Like Receptors, Associated Biological Roles, and Signaling Networks in Non-Mammals

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
The innate immune system is the first line of defense against pathogens, which is initiated by the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and endogenous damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) by pattern recognition receptors (

Pulmonary Delivery of siRNA Anti‐TNFα‐loaded Lipid Nanoparticles for Rapid Recovery in Murine Acute Lung Injury

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In a murine model of acute lung injury, pulmonary administration of lipid nanoparticles carrying TNFα siRNA enables targeted delivery to immune cells. The study emphasises the importance of optimizing LNP distribution and delivery timing to improve therapeutic outcomes and develop emergency therapies for lung hyperinflammation.

Toll-like receptor 2 and Toll-like receptor 4 predict favorable prognosis in local pancreatic cancer

Tumor Biology, 2018
Toll-like receptors play an essential role in our innate immune system and are a focus of interest in contemporary cancer research. Thus far, Toll-like receptors have shown promising prognostic value in carcinomas of the oral cavity, colon, and ovaries ...

Activation of the innate immune receptor Dectin-1 upon formation of a 'phagocytic synapse'. [PDF]

, 2011
Innate immune cells must be able to distinguish between direct binding to microbes and detection of components shed from the surface of microbes located at a distance. Dectin-1 (also known as CLEC7A) is a pattern-recognition receptor expressed by myeloid

Involvement of Toll-like Receptors 2 and 4 in Cellular Activation by High Mobility Group Box 1 Protein*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein, originally described as a DNA-binding protein that stabilizes nucleosomes and facilitates transcription, can also be released extracellularly during acute inflammatory responses.
