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

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

We recently reported that human bone marrow hematopoietic CD34(+) progenitors express functional Toll-like receptors (TLR) and can differentiate into myeloid cells just by stimulation with resiquimod (R848), a specific agonist for TLR7/8. However, the mechanisms by which R848 induces cell

Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia, reduced numbers of peripheral blood isotype-switched memory B cells, and loss of plasma cells. Because Toll-like receptor (TLR) activation of B cells can initiate and potentially sustain normal B cell functions, we
