NOD1 Activators Link Innate Immunity to Insulin Resistance
OBJECTIVE Insulin resistance associates with chronic inflammation, and participatory elements of the immune system are emerging. We hypothesized that bacterial elements acting on distinct intracellular pattern recognition receptors of the innate immune system, such as bacterial peptidoglycan (PGN) acting on nucleotide oligomerization domain (NOD) proteins, contribute to insulin resistance. RE...
متن کاملNod1 and Nod2 in innate immunity and human inflammatory disorders.
Nod (nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain) 1 and Nod2 are intracellular PRMs (pattern-recognition molecules) of the NLR (Nod-like receptor) family. These proteins are implicated in the detection of bacterial peptidoglycan and regulate pro-inflammatory pathways in response to bacteria by inducing signalling pathways such as NF-kappaB (nuclear factor kappaB) and MAPKs (mitogen-activated prot...
متن کاملTLR4 links innate immunity and fatty acid-induced insulin resistance.
TLR4 is the receptor for LPS and plays a critical role in innate immunity. Stimulation of TLR4 activates proinflammatory pathways and induces cytokine expression in a variety of cell types. Inflammatory pathways are activated in tissues of obese animals and humans and play an important role in obesity-associated insulin resistance. Here we show that nutritional fatty acids, whose circulating le...
متن کاملNKG2D ligands link oncogenic RAS to innate immunity
RAS is constitutively active in multiple types of tumor cells. We have recently demonstrated that H-RASV12 enhances the translation of ligands for the activating immune receptor NKG2D, hence rendering cells more susceptible to natural killer (NK) cell-mediated lysis. This effect depends on MAPK and PI3K signaling, but not on the DNA damage response.
متن کاملChemokine Systems Link Obesity to Insulin Resistance
Obesity is a state of chronic low-grade systemic inflammation. This chronic inflammation is deeply involved in insulin resistance, which is the underlying condition of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. A significant advance in our understanding of obesity-associated inflammation and insulin resistance has been recognition of the critical role of adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs). Chemokin...
