Toll-like receptor 9 is required for chronic stress-induced immune suppression.
OBJECTIVES Mental and physical stress can suppress the immune system in both humans and animals. The mechanism by which stress affects immune responses, however, remains poorly defined. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a key role in modulating immune responses and cell survival. The mechanisms by which TLRs modulate chronic stress are largely unexplored. METHODS Six- to 8-week-old male mice we...
متن کاملToll-like receptor 4 mutation suppresses hyperhomocysteinemia-induced hypertension.
Hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) has been observed to promote hypertension, but the mechanisms are unclear. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) is a cellular membrane protein that is ubiquitously expressed in all cell types of the vasculature. TLR-4 activation has been known to promote inflammation that has been associated with the pathogenesis of hypertension. In this study we hypothesize that HHcy induce...
متن کاملLipopolysaccharide Induced Activation of Toll Like Receptor 4 in Isolated Rat Heart Suggests a Local Immune Response in Myocardium
Background: Myocardial dysfunction is one of the major complications in patients with sepsis where there is a relationship between the blood level of cytokines and the onset of myocardial depression. In many cases of sepsis, the presence of Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been established. LPS Binding Protein (LBP) bound endotoxin is recognized by CD14/toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) complexes in inna...
متن کاملtoll-like receptor 4 in ventilator-induced lung injuries
toll like receptors (tlrs) recognize pathogens and generate an immediate defense response by inducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which rapidly destroy or limit the pathogens. in their bridging role, tlr downstream signals link innate and adaptive immunity, particularly by mediating dc maturation and activation of pathogen specific t lymphocytes. these pathways lead to the act...
متن کاملSignaling events induced by lipopolysaccharide-activated toll-like receptor 2.
Human Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is a signaling receptor that responds to LPS and activates NF-kappaB. Here, we investigate further the events triggered by TLR2 in response to LPS. We show that TLR2 associates with the high-affinity LPS binding protein membrane CD14 to serve as an LPS receptor complex, and that LPS treatment enhances the oligomerization of TLR2. Concomitant with receptor oligo...
