Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleExpression of Toll-like Receptors (TLRs) and Nucleotide-binding Oligomerization Domain (NODs) in murine peritoneal macrophages on in vitro treatment with Thymosin Î± 1Shikha Tarang, Ajit SodhiThymosin α 1 (Tα1) treatment of murine peritoneal macrophages in vitro induces the expression of TLRs and Nod2 proteins. Enhanced expressions of TLR2, -4, -5, -6, -7, -8, -9 and Nod2 were observed by RT-PCR and western blotting. Expression of downstream signaling molecules - MyD88, IRAK1, TRAF6, IRF3 were also up regulated on treatment with Tα1. It was also observed … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,150 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Innate Immunity in Bovine Mastitis: The Role of Pattern-Recognition ReceptorsFernando Nogueira de Souza, Eduardo Milton Ramos Sanchez, Marcos Bryan Heinemann et al.Mastitis is the most costly disease for dairy farmers and industry, which are mainly caused by the entry of bacteria to the teat canal. Shortly after the entry of the invading bacteria, the innate immunity recognizes the invading pathogen through pattern recognition receptors and initiates the inflammatory response necessary to eliminate the invading bacteria. This initial inflammatory response releases cytokines … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Oct 2012 · 10,352 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMarking of Genetic Resistance to Chlamydia, Brucellosis and Mastitis in Holstein Cows by Using Polymorphic Variants of LTF, MBL1 and TLR9 GenesIndira Beishova, Birzhan Nurgaliyev, Alena Belaya et al.The purpose of the research is to study the association of polymorphic variants of the Toll-Like Receptor 9 (TLR9), Mannose-Binding Lectin 1 (MBL1), and Lactoferrin (LTF) genes with the incidence of chlamydia, brucellosis and mastitis in Holstein cows. Samples of Holstein cows with established diagnoses of chlamydia, brucellosis, and mastitis were characterized by the nature of the correspondence of the … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 6 May 2023 · 6,157 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordscDNA Cloning and Characterization of the House Dust Mite Allergen Sui p 2Joshua Evans M. Bajao, John Donnie A. RamosSuidasia pontifica (Sp) is a House Dust Mite (HDM) species found in tropical urban residential areas which causes sensitization of up to 75% of allergic patients. Cloning of allergens from Sp is a significant initial step in understanding the clinical significance of this HDM species. The study describes the cloning and in silico characterization of the group 2 allergen gene … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 14 May 2020 · 7,885 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractFocalize the Structure of Myd88 in TLR Signaling Pathway to Modulate Innate Immune Response: New Target for Old DiseasesShuai Xing, Ping ZhouAll diseases have their Achilles’ Heel to target and this is especially true for immunorelated diseases which must be treated by targeting the immune system somewhere and somehow correctly. In the most recent decade, immunologists recognized that the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signaling pathway in innate immune system plays a double-edged role in the pathogenesis of many notorious diseases. Although the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,862 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHost Receptor Immunomodulation in Response to Shigella Surface Antigens: An Insight for Vaccine DevelopmentAshim K. Bagchi, Rushita A. Bagchi, Dipak K. Hens et al.Shigellosis, caused by Shigella is the most common cause of bacillary dysentery. The disease is associated with high morbidity and mortality rate owing to its multiple drug resistance. Hence recovery from the disease would primarily depend on the development of an effective immune-modulator for strong mucosal immune response. The role of cellular immunity may be a critical factor in protection … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2015 · 6,752 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDUAL ROLES OF CANCER CELL-EXPRESSED IMMUNOGLOBULINS IN CANCER IMMUNOLOGYGregory Lee, Cheng-Yuan Huang, Suefay Liu et al.While the expression of immunoglobulins and T cell receptors on cancer cells has been well-established for decades, the potential roles and mechanisms of action of these cancerous antigen receptors have not been fully elucidated. A monoclonal antibody designated as RP215, which reacts specifically with the carbohydrate-associated epitope located on the heavy chain region of cancerous immunoglobulins and T cell receptors, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 2 Oct 2014 · 7,870 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInnate and Adaptative Immunity in the Sea-Star Asterias RubensMichel LeclercThe axial organ of the sea star Asterias rubens is a primitive immune organ. The B-like cells, when stimulated by various antigens, produce antibody substances correlating with Mouse Ig Kappa genes. On the other hand elements of the innate immunity are present in Asterias rubens such as Toll-like receptors, interleukin receptors, complement components which contribute to initiate the «antibody factor». …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 1 Sep 2012 · 7,903 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractToll-Like Receptor (TLR) 2 and TLR4 Gene Expression in Canine HeartA. Linde, F. Blecha, T. MelgarejoToll-like receptors (TLRs) are archetypal pattern recognition receptors of immediate importance for an efficacious innate immune response. TLRs exhibit marked differential tissue activity and their levels within a discrete cell type can be highly dynamic. Of 13 known mammalian paralogues, three TLRs have been identified in the dog. Although cardiac TLR expression has been reported in other species, this study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 6,921 accessesView PDF Cite
