Toll-like receptor 9 signaling mediates the anti-inflammatory effects of probiotics in murine experimental colitis.
BACKGROUND & AIMS We tested whether the attenuation of experimental colitis by live probiotic bacteria is due to their immunostimulatory DNA, whether toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling is required, and whether nonviable probiotics are effective. METHODS Methylated and unmethylated genomic DNA isolated from probiotics (VSL-3), DNAse-treated probiotics and Escherichia coli (DH5 alpha) genomic D...
متن کاملPathological role of Toll-like receptor signaling in cerebral malaria.
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize malaria parasites or their metabolites; however, their physiological roles in malaria infection in vivo are not fully understood. Here, we show that myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 (MyD88)-dependent TLR signaling mediates brain pathogenesis of severe malaria infection, namely cerebral malaria (CM). A significant number of MyD88-, but not TIR...
متن کاملP-82: The Role of Toll-Like Receptor 2 in Ectopic Pregnancy
Background: The innate immune system is our first line of defense against invading pathogens. Toll–like receptors (TLRs) have been identified as a key role in mediating the function of innate immune system which bridges the gap between innate and adaptive immunity. For example, TLR2 is able to act as a homodimer to recognize lipoteichoic acids of Gram-positive bacteria but as a heterodimer with...
متن کاملToll-like receptor 9 signaling is critical for early experimental deep vein thrombosis resolution.
OBJECTIVE Toll-like receptors (TLR) bridge innate immunity and host responses, including inflammation. Sterile inflammation such as a venous thrombus (Vt) may involve TLR signaling, including TLR9. METHODS AND RESULTS TLR9 signaling on thrombus resolution was investigated using a mouse model of stasis Vt. Vt were significantly larger in TLR9-/- mice compared with wild-type (WT) at 2 and 8 day...
متن کاملRole of Toll-like receptor signaling in the apoptotic response of macrophages to Yersinia infection.
Macrophages encode several Toll-like receptors (TLRs) that recognize bacterial components, such as lipoproteins (TLR2) or lipopolysaccharides (TLR4), and activate multiple signaling pathways. Activation of transcription factor NF-kappaB by TLR2 or TLR4 signaling promotes proinflammatory and cell survival responses. Alternatively, TLR2 or TLR4 signaling can promote apoptosis if the activation of...
