Toll-like receptor 4 polymorphism associated with the response to whole-cell pertussis vaccination in children from the KOALA study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We examined the association between haplotype tagging single-nucleotide polymorphisms in TLR4 and the pertussis toxin-specific immunoglobulin G response after whole-cell pertussis (wP) vaccination in 515 1-year-old children from the KOALA study. A lower titer was associated with the minor allele of rs2770150, supporting a role for Toll-like receptor 4 in the antibody response to wP vaccination.

Background & Aim: Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) are the members of the Toll-like receptor family and play important roles in recognition and subsequent immune response against mycobacteria. Two functional polymorphisms for TLR2 (Arg677Trp, C à T Arg753Gln, G à A) and TLR4 (Asp299Gly, A à G Thr399Ile, C à T) genes have been associated with a negative influence on ...
متن کاملAssociation of toll-like receptors 2 and 6 polymorphism with clinical mastitis and production traits in Holstein cattle
Mastitis is a costly disease of dairy cattle as it causes a loss in milk yield and milk quality in affected cows. Toll-like receptor (TLR) genes play a role in the host response to a variety of organisms including those inducing mastitis. In the present study, we investigated the polymorphism of TLR2, 4, 6 and 9 genes in Holstein cattle and ...
متن کاملClinical Value of Toll Like Receptor 4 and CD14 in Children with Acute Lower Respiratory Tract Infection
Toll like receptors (TLRs) with a myeloid differentiation antigen (CD14) recognize and bind various structures from invading microbes and then trigger cell activation. They initiate a variety of effectors' functions, including cytokine secretion, proliferation, co-stimulation or phagocyte maturation. The aim of this study was to evaluate Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and CD14 expression in childr...

Background: The pathogenesis of migraine involves immune-mediated mechanisms in the vascular endothelium. Toll like receptor 4 (TLR-4) is a signaling receptor of innate immunity which plays a role in various neuropathologies related to neuron inflammation. Objective: This case/control study is aimed to investigate whether TLR- 4 896A/G variation is related to migraine headaches in an Iranian po...
