Although Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have been well characterised in mammals, less work has been carried out in non-mammalian species, such as chickens. In this study the response of chicken cells to the TLR9 subfamily of ligands was characterised in vitro

Toll-like receptors (TLR) 7 and 8 are closely related members of the TLR family of pathogen-associated molecular pattern recognition receptors and have an important function in activation of innate immune responses upon viral infection. TLR7 can be activated selectively by

The generation of reactive oxygen species is a central feature of inflammation that results in the oxidation of host phospholipids. Oxidized phospholipids, such as 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine (OxPAPC), have been shown to inhibit signaling induced by bacterial lipopeptide or lipopolysaccharide (LPS), yet

Compelling evidence suggests that inflammation, cell survival, and cancer are linked, with a central role played by NF-kappaB. Recent studies implicate some TLRs in tumor development based on their ability to facilitate tumor growth; however, to our knowledge, involvement of

RNA molecules such as single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA) duplexes induce Toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated immune stimulation after intracellular delivery. We have previously shown that selective incorporation of 2'-O-methyl (2'OMe) residues into siRNA abrogates cytokine production without reduction
