Polymorphisms of the Toll-like receptors and human disease.

Association 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 ...

Gene Expression Quantification of Toll like Receptors 2, 4 and Co-molecules in Human Glioblastoma Cell Line (U87-MG): Toward a New In vitro Model of Inflammation

P-225: Gene Variations of Toll-Like Receptor 3 in Endometriosis

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...

The Role of Toll-Like Receptors in Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is highly prevalent worldwide. Treatment of this disease is a major global public health problem; therefore, numerous studies have explored new molecular profile helping for breast cancer therapy. Different risk factors are attributed to breast cancer; however, chronic inflammation and immune regulation are highly essential. Various molecules impact this context, including toll-li...

P-172: Intracellular Toll Like Receptors Expression in Endometriosis

Background: Endometriosis is a complex disease that profoundly affects the quality of life in many women. This disease affects roughly one in ten women of reproductive age. Endometriosis induces a variable amount of inflammatory reaction in pelvic environment. An active immune system needs to recognize these inflammatory agents. Rapid innate immune system defenses against infections involve the...

Simvastatin and Recombinant Antagonist of Receptors of Interleukin-1 Modulate Toll-like Receptors in Experimental Acute Ileitis in Rat

Background: The pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease is complex and multifactorial. Studies have led to the current concept that Toll-like receptors represent key mediators of innate host defense in the intestine, and they are involved in maintaining mucosal as well as commensal homeostasis. We studied the possibility of simvastatin and antagonist of receptors of interleukin-1 for pharmac...
