Inhibition of Toll-like receptor-7 (TLR-7) or TLR-7 plus TLR-9 attenuates glomerulonephritis and lung injury in experimental lupus.
Small nuclear RNA and associated lupus autoantigens activate B cells and dendritic cells via Toll-like receptor-7 (TLR-7); therefore, TLR-7 may represent a potential therapeutic target in lupus. MRL lpr mice were administered an injection of either saline or synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides with immunoregulatory sequences (IRS) that specifically block signaling via TLR-7 (IRS 661) or via TLR-7 a...
متن کاملToll-like receptor (TLR)-7 and -8 modulatory activities of dimeric imidazoquinolines.
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are pattern recognition receptors that recognize specific molecular patterns present in molecules that are broadly shared by pathogens but are structurally distinct from host molecules. The TLR7-agonistic imidazoquinolines are of interest as vaccine adjuvants given their ability to induce pronounced Th1-skewed humoral responses. Minor modifications on the imidazoquino...
متن کاملPrecise determination of toll-like receptor (TLR) 7 expression in multiple human tumor types
TLR7 agonists are being progressed as potential immunotherapeutics for the treatment of cancer. TLR7 agonism is believed to trigger a plasmacytoid dendritic cell driven immune response which drives anti-tumor efficacy. In addition to modulation of the immune system, TLR7 may be involved in tumor progression due to expression of TLR7 by tumor cells themselves [1]. To determine the precise distri...
متن کاملFunctional Effects of Toll-Like Receptor (TLR)3, 7, 9, RIG-I and MDA-5 Stimulation in Nasal Epithelial Cells
BACKGROUND The human nasal epithelium is an important physical barrier, and a part of the innate immune defense that protect against pathogens. The epithelial cells recognize microbial components by pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs), and thereby trigger an immune response. Even though TLR3, TLR7, TLR9, RIG-I and MDA-5 are all known to respond to viral stimulation, their potential role in chr...
متن کاملquantitative evaluation of baff, hmgb1, tlr 4 and tlr 7 expression in patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis
multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system characterized by a complex immune response. because of the complex nature of ms pathogenesis, a panel of biomarkers derived from different platforms will be required to reflect disease-related alterations. monitoring and evaluation of molecules associated with the pathogenesis of the disease would provide useful ...
