Synthetic Toll-Like Receptors for Control of Innate Immunity With Far-Red Light. [PDF]
Synthetic Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are engineered by replacing their natural sensing regions with a far‐red‐light‐responsive module from a bacterial phytochrome. These synthetic receptors enable light‐controlled regulation of immune signaling in mammalian cells.

Toll-like Receptor 4 and Hepatic Fibrogenesis [PDF]
Inflammation is strongly associated with chronic hepatic injury and the ensuing wound-healing process. Recent evidence from mouse models and human studies implicates Toll-like receptors (TLRs) as important regulators of the inflammatory response and a functional link between inflammation and fibrosis in the chronically injured liver.

Toll-like Receptor 4 Polymorphisms and Atherogenesis
The ability to mount a prominent inflammatory response to bacterial pathogens confers an advantage in innate immune defense but may signal an increased risk of atherosclerosis. We determined whether recently discovered genetic variants of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) that confer differences in the inflammatory response elicited by bacterial ...

Toll‐like receptor 4 in CNS pathologies [PDF]
J. Neurochem. (2010) 114, 13–27.AbstractThe responses of the brain to infection, ischemia and trauma share remarkable similarities. These and other conditions of the CNS coordinate an innate immune response marked by activation of microglia, the macrophage‐like cells of the nervous system. An important contributor to microglial activation is toll‐like

Toll-like receptor 4 and atherogenesis
Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is a pattern recognition receptor involved in the innate immune response to various microorganisms and other exogenous and endogenous stress factors. Recently, evidence emerged that important inflammatory processes implicit in human atherogenesis are mediated in part via the TLR4/nuclear factor-kappaB pathway.

Negative regulation of Toll-like receptor 4 signaling by the Toll-like receptor homolog RP105 [PDF]
Activation of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling by microbial signatures is critical to the induction of immune responses. Such responses demand tight regulation. RP105 is a TLR homolog thought to be mostly B cell specific, lacking a signaling domain. We report here that RP105 expression was wide, directly mirroring that of TLR4 on antigen-presenting ...

Pattern-recognition receptors in endometriosis: A narrative review
Endometriosis is closely associated with ectopic focal inflammation and immunosuppressive microenvironment. Multiple types of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are present in the innate immune system, which are able to detect pathogen-associated ...

There exists a considerable body of literature on immunopathogenesis of chronic hepatitis C. Although results appear consistent with prior research in the area mentioned above, they appear inconsistent with the issues in the area of diagnosis, prognosis

Background: An increasing number of studies have suggested the relationship between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in toll-like receptor (TLR) genes and gastric cancer (GC) susceptibility; however, the available evidence is contradictory.
