Toll-like receptor 2 type 1 and type 2 polymorphisms in different chicken breeds.

چکیده
Toll-like receptors mediate immune responses via recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns. Polymorphisms of toll-like receptors may affect their recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns, leading to varied host resistance to pathogenic infections. However, little is known about the polymorphisms of chicken toll-like receptors (ChTLR) among breeds. In this study, we cloned ChTLR2 type 1 and type 2 genes from 7 chicken breeds and analyzed their sequences. It was found that there were 10 amino acid polymorphism sites in ChTLR2 type 1 and type 2, among which 6 sites were in type 1 (5 sites in the extracellular domain and 1 site in the cytoplasmic domain) and 4 sites were in type 2 (all 4 sites in the extracellular domain). These results demonstrate that ChTLR2 type 1 and type 2 genes are polymorphic among chicken breeds, suggesting a varied resistance among breeds of chicken. We found that Laiwu Black chicken breeds have distinctive polymorphic sites at I699T in the type 1 and H561R in the type 2 ChTLR2 gene. Beijing Fatty chickens have distinctive sites at Q45R in type 1 and V66L in type 2. Nongda No.3 Chickens have distinctive sites at L115P, H232Y, and T494A in type 1. Hy-Line variety brown chickens have distinctive sites at I311V in type 2. Beijing White 939 chickens have distinctive sites at E284G in type 1 and A22V in type 2. These findings may provide some clues toward understanding the resistance of lighter chickens to salmonellosis.

Polymorphisms of Chicken TLR3 and 7 in Different Breeds
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) mediate immune responses via the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), thus playing important roles in host defense. Among the chicken (Ch) TLR family, ChTLR3 and 7 have been shown to recognize viral RNA. In our earlier studies, we have reported polymorphisms of TLR1, 2, 4, 5, 15 and 21. In the present study, we amplified TLR3 and 7 genes from...

Background: Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disorder that is characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial tissue. Recently, endometriosis has been alternatively described as an immune, genetic and hormonal disease caused by exposure to environmental factors. Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) comprises a family of receptors through directly recognizing exogenous and endogenous ligands play...
