Platelets express functional Toll-like receptor-4.
Profound thrombocytopenia occurs in humans with sepsis and in mice administered lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Growing evidence indicates that platelets may contribute to these abnormalities, but whether that is a direct result of LPS activation of platelets or an indirect result of other inflammatory mechanisms remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that although platelets do not increase P-selectin ...
متن کاملEnteroendocrine cells express functional Toll-like receptors.
Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) provide a physical and immunological barrier against enteric microbial flora. Toll-like receptors (TLRs), through interactions with conserved microbial patterns, activate inflammatory gene expression in cells of the innate immune system. Previous studies of the expression and function of TLRs in IECs have reported varying results. Therefore, TLR expression was...
متن کاملFunctional cell surface expression of toll-like receptor 9 promotes cell proliferation and survival in human hepatocellular carcinomas.
Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) is a pattern-recognition receptor that is involved in immune signaling and plays a crucial role in cell survival through recognition of various bacterial and viral components including unmethylated CpG-DNA. TLR9 expression and function in cancer cells are not well understood. We investigated the expression of TLR9, and the function of TLR9 signaling, in hepatocellula...
متن کاملToll-Like Receptor 9 in Breast Cancer
Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) is a cellular DNA receptor of the innate immune system. DNA recognition via TLR9 results in an inflammatory reaction, which eventually also activates a Th1-biased adaptive immune attack. In addition to cells of the immune system, TLR9 mRNA and protein are also widely expressed in breast cancer cell lines and in clinical breast cancer specimens. Although synthetic TLR...
متن کاملToll-like receptor function in primary B cell defects.
Primary immunodeficiency diseases include more than 150 different genetic defects, classified on the basis of the mutations or physiological defects involved. The first immune defects to be well recognized were those of adaptive immunity affecting B cell function and resulting in hypogammaglobulinemia and defects of specific antibody production; more recently, novel defects of innate immunity h...
