The Journal of Immunology Intestinal Expression of Fas and Fas Ligand Is Upregulated by Bacterial Signaling through TLR4 and TLR5, with Activation of Fas Modulating Intestinal TLR-Mediated Inflammation Philana Fernandes,* Charlotte O’Donnell,* Caitriona Lyons,† Jonathan Keane,† Tim Regan,† Stephen O’Brien,† Padraic Fallon,‡ Elizabeth Brint,†,x,1 and Aileen Houston*,x,1 TLRs play an important role in mediating intestinal inflammation and homeostasis. Fas is best studied in terms of its function in apoptosis, but recent studies demonstrate that Fas signaling may mediate additional functions such as inflammation. The role of Fas, Downloaded from and the Fas ligand (FasL), in the intestine is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to evaluate potential cross-talk between TLRs and Fas/FasL system in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). IECs were stimulated with TLR ligands, and expression of Fas and FasL was investigated. Treatment with TLR4 and TLR5 ligands, but not TLR2 and 9 ligands, increased expression of Fas and FasL in IECs in vitro. Consistent with this finding, expression of intestinal Fas and FasL was reduced in vivo in the epithelium of TLR4 knockout (KO), 5KO, and germ-free mice, but not in TLR2KO mice. Modulating Fas signaling using agonistic anti-Fas augmented TLR4- and TLR5-mediated TNF-a and IL-8 production by IECs. In addition, suppression of Fas in IECs reduced the ability of http://www.jimmunol.org/ TLR4 and TLR5 ligands and the intestinal pathogens Salmonella typhimurium and Listeria monocytogenes to induce the expres- sion of IL-8. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that extensive cross-talk in IECs occurs between the Fas and TLR signaling pathways, with the FasL/Fas system playing a role in TLR-mediated inflammatory responses in the intestine.

In this report, we demonstrate a previously unknown role of MyD88 in TLR3 signaling in inducing endogenous ligands of TLR2 to elicit innate immune responses. Of the various TLR ligands examined, the TLR3-specific ligand polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly I:C), significantly induced TNF production and the upregulation of other TLR transcripts, in particular, TLR2. Accordingly, TLR3 stimulation also led to a significant upregulation of endogenous TLR2 ligands mainly, HMGB1 and Hsp60. By contrast, the silencing of TLR3 significantly downregulated MyD88 and TLR2 gene expression and pro-inflammatory IL1β, TNF, and IL8 secretion. The silencing of MyD88 similarly led to the downregulation of TLR2, IL1β, TNF and IL8, thus suggesting MyD88 / to somehow act downstream of TLR3.

  • TLR Signaling Pathways
    Seminars in Immunology 16 (2004) 3–9 TLR signaling pathways Kiyoshi Takeda, Shizuo Akira∗ Department of Host Defense, Research Institute for Microbial Diseases, Osaka University, and ERATO, Japan Science and Technology Corporation, 3-1 Yamada-oka, Suita, Osaka 565-0871, Japan Abstract Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have been established to play an essential role in the activation of innate immunity by recognizing spe- cific patterns of microbial components. TLR signaling pathways arise from intracytoplasmic TIR domains, which are conserved among all TLRs. Recent accumulating evidence has demonstrated that TIR domain-containing adaptors, such as MyD88, TIRAP, and TRIF, modulate TLR signaling pathways. MyD88 is essential for the induction of inflammatory cytokines triggered by all TLRs. TIRAP is specifically involved in the MyD88-dependent pathway via TLR2 and TLR4, whereas TRIF is implicated in the TLR3- and TLR4-mediated MyD88-independent pathway. Thus, TIR domain-containing adaptors provide specificity of TLR signaling. © 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. Keywords: TLR; Innate immunity; Signal transduction; TIR domain 1. Introduction 2.

Many inflammatory mediators contribute to paracrine and endocrine signalling, and the maintenance of tissue homeostasis in the female reproductive tract. However, inflammation is also a feature of microbial infections of the reproductive tract. Bacteria and viruses commonly cause endometritis, perturb ovarian follicle development and suppress the endocrine activity of the hypothalamus and pituitary in cattle. Innate immunity is an evolutionary ancient system that orchestrates host cell inflammatory responses aimed at eliminating pathogens and repairing damaged tissue. Pattern recognition receptors on host cells bind pathogen-associated molecular patterns and damage-associated molecular patterns, leading to the activation of intracellular MAPK and NFkB signalling pathways and the release of inflammatory mediators.

Read Full License Page 1/18 Abstract Purpose: The role of platelet TLR4 in transfusion reactions remains unclear. This study analyzed platelet TLR4, certain DAMPs, and the effect of ABO compatibility on TLR4 expression after a simulated transfusion ex vivo. Methods: Donor red blood cells were harvested from a blood bank. Recipient blood from patients undergoing cardiac surgery was processed to generate a washed platelet suspension. Donor blood was added to the washed platelets at 1%, 5%, or 10% (v/v). Blood mixing experiments were performed using four groups: 0.9% saline control group (n = 31); M, matched blood type mixing (n = 20); S, uncross- matched ABO type-specic mixing (n = 20); and I, ABO incompatible blood mixing (n = 20). Platelet TLR4 expression was determined after blood mixing. Levels of TLR4-binding DAMPs (HMGB1, S100A8, S100A9, and SAA) and that of LPS-binding protein and endpoint proteins (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6) in the TLR4 signaling pathway were evaluated. Results: The 1%, 5%, and 10% blood mixtures signicantly increased TLR4 expression in three groups (M, S, and I; all P < 0.001) in a concentration-dependent manner.

MD2 is a molecule necessary for LPS recognition inflammation. Here, we investigated TLR4 and CD14 expression on by TLR4, which also cannot mediate signaling. TLR4, upon peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) and their roles in lipopolysac- LPS binding, leads to intracellular activation of mitogen- charide (LPS)-induced cytokine and chemokine release. Full-term activated protein kinase and nuclear factor-␬B that mediate and preterm neonates and adults were studied. PBLs were pretreated with anti-TLR4– and anti-CD14–blocking antibodies and stimulated the transcription of proinflammatory cytokine and chemokine with LPS. Cytokine and chemokine levels were measured in super- genes (4). TLR4 signaling also activates DCs that subse- natants. TLR4, CD14 expression, and LPS-induced CXCL8 release quently present pathogenic peptides to T lymphocytes and, were higher in neonates, possibly contributing to aberrant inflamma- thus, stimulate T-cell–mediated immunity (5).
