Toll-Like Receptor-4 Mediated Inflammation Is Involved in the Cardiometabolic Alterations Induced by Intermittent Hypoxia
OBJECTIVE Intermittent hypoxia (IH) is a major component of sleep apnea syndrome as its cardiometabolic complications have been mainly attributed to IH. The pathophysiology is still poorly understood but there are some similarities with the obesity-associated cardiometabolic complications. As the latter results from inflammation involving toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) signaling, we assessed this ...
متن کاملToll-like receptor 2 signalling and inflammation.
T oll-like receptors (TLRs) are a family of proteins that are involved in the initial phase of host defence against invading pathogens. TLRs act as primary sensors of microbial products and activate signalling pathways that lead to the induction of immune and inflammatory genes. TLRs belong to a broader family of proteins, which include receptors for the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin (I...
متن کاملInhibition of Toll-like receptor 2 reduces cardiac fibrosis by attenuating macrophage-mediated inflammation.
AIMS Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is an important player in innate immunity, and recent studies have identified TLR2 as a critical mediator in cardiovascular diseases. Here, we investigated the involvement of TLR2 in angiotensin (Ang) II-induced cardiac fibrosis and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS TLR2 knockout (TLR2 KO) mice (B6.129-Tlr2(tm1Kir)/) or wild-type (WT) mice (C57BL/...
متن کاملTargeting Toll-like receptor 4 prevents cobalt-mediated inflammation
Cobalt-chrome alloy is a widely used biomaterial in joint replacements, dental implants and spinal rods. Although it is an effective and biocompatible material, adverse reactions to metal debris (ARMD) have arisen in a minority of patients, particularly in those with metal-on-metal bearing hip replacements. There is currently no treatment for ARMD and once progressive, early revision surgery of...
متن کاملDoxorubicin-Induced Systemic Inflammation Is Driven by Upregulation of Toll-Like Receptor TLR4 and Endotoxin Leakage.
Doxorubicin is one of the most effective chemotherapeutic agents used for cancer treatment, but it causes systemic inflammation and serious multiorgan side effects in many patients. In this study, we report that upregulation of the proinflammatory Toll-like receptor TLR4 in macrophages by doxorubicin is an important step in generating its toxic side effects. In patient serum, doxorubicin treatm...
