In this study, the toll‐like receptor 1 (tlr1) and toll‐like receptor 2 (tlr2) genes of grass carp Ctenopharyngodon idella were cloned and characterized. tlr1 and tlr2 were found to be highly expressed in immune system organs such as spleen, middle kidney and heart kidney. The expression level of tlr1 and tlr2 was found to be up‐regulated at the later stage of viral challenge process. Moreover, subcellular localization indicated that Tlr1 and Tlr2 shared similar localization pattern and both of them may locate in the plasma membrane of transfected cells. 相似文献

Eleven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in Ctenopharyngodon idella toll‐like receptor 7 (citlr7) gene, containing two in the 5′‐flanking region, three within the single intron and six distributed in the coding sequence (CDS), were identified. A case–control study of 73 susceptible individuals and 67 resistant individuals was conducted to test the SNPs‐based susceptibility–resistance association and mRNA expression of citlr7 to grass carp reovirus (GCRV), showing that both 820 A/G and 1726 A/G were significantly correlative sites in genotype (P < 0·05). Multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) analysis suggested the exertion of antiviral effects of 820 A/G might rely on SNPs interactions of citlr7 and C. idella toll‐like receptor 8 (citlr8). Combining the mortality rate and citlr7 mRNA expression, it was suggested that 1726 GG‐genotyped individuals might be more resistant than 1726 A/G genotyped individuals, indicating the selection on synonymous mutations in 1726 A/G might be susceptibility–resistance‐type specific. In addition, haplotype analysis uncovered no significantly correlative haplotypes in citlr7. These findings may provide an in‐depth insight for the further functional research of citlr7. The potential genetic markers identified may contribute to the molecular and transgenic breeding of C. idella. 相似文献

It remains unclear whether and how cardiomyocytes contribute to the inflammation in chronic heart failure (CHF). We recently reviewed the capacity of cardiomyocytes to initiate inflammation, by means of expressing certain immune receptors such as toll‐like receptors (TLRs) that respond to pathogen‐ and damage‐associated molecular patterns (PAMP and DAMP). Previous studies observed TLR4‐mediated inflammation within days of myocardial infarction (MI). This study examined TLR4 expression and function in cardiomyocytes of failing hearts after 4 weeks of MI in rats. The increases of TLR4 mRNA and proteins, as well as inflammatory cytokine production, were observed in both the infarct and remote myocardium. Enhanced immunostaining for TLR4 was observed in cardiomyocytes but not infiltrating leucocytes. The injection of lentivirus shRNA against TLR4 into the infarcted heart decreased inflammatory cytokine production and improved heart function in vivo. Accordingly, in cardiomyocytes isolated from CHF hearts, increases of TLR4 mRNA and proteins were detected. More robust binding of TLR4 with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a PAMP ligand for TLR4, and heat shock protein 60 (HSP60), a DAMP ligand for TLR4, was observed in CHF cardiomyocytes under a confocal microscope. The maximum binding capacity (Bmax) of TLR4 was increased for LPS and HSP60, whereas the binding affinity (Kd) was not significantly changed. Furthermore, both LPS and HSP60 induced more robust production of inflammatory cytokines in CHF cardiomyocytes, which was reduced by TLR4‐blocking antibodies. We conclude that the expression, ligand‐binding capacity and pro‐inflammatory function of cardiomyocyte TLR4 are up‐regulated after long‐term MI, which promote inflammation and exacerbate heart failure. 相似文献

Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) has an important protective function against viral infection. The ability of an individual to respond properly to TLR ligands may be impaired by variants located in the TLR genes. By directly PCR sequencing four exons and their flanking sequence of chicken TLR3, a total of 50 nucleotide variants were identified from five breeds. Tibetan chickens and Silkies exhibited more abundant variation sites and rare alleles. Thirty haplotypes were reconstructed, with 31 variants whose minor allelic frequency was above 5% in five breeds, which revealed four divergent clades. Chicken TLR3 was partitioned into three haplotype blocks by the htSNPer program, and six tag SNPs could be used to distinguish these 30 haplotypes. Thirty variants were located in the coding sequence of chicken TLR3, and 16 of them were non-synonymous substitutions. It is predicted that p.Ser180Gly amino substitution could form an N-myristoylation site; the p.Lys240Thr amino substitution in chicken TLR3 could result in the loss of one protein kinase C phosphorylation site. These data provide a basic understanding of chicken TLR3 sequence variation and provide haplotypic markers for disease association studies. 相似文献

Free fatty acid receptor G protein‐coupled receptor 120 (GPR120) is highly expressed in macrophages and was reported to inhibit lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐stimulated cytokine expression. Under inflammation, macrophages exhibit striking functional changes, but changes in GPR120 expression and signaling are not known. In this study, the effects of LPS treatment on macrophage GPR120 expression and activation were investigated. The results showed that LPS inhibited GPR120 expression in mouse macrophage cell line Ana‐1 cells. Moreover, LPS treatment inhibited GPR120 expression in mouse alveolar macrophages both in vitro and in vivo. The inhibitory effect of LPS on GPR120 expression was blocked by Toll‐like receptor 4 (TLR4) inhibitor TAK242 and p38 mitogen‐activated protein kinase inhibitor LY222820, but not by ERK1/2 inhibitor U0126 and c‐Jun N‐terminal kinase inhibitor SP600125. LPS‐induced inhibition of GPR120 expression was not attenuated by GPR120 agonists TUG891 and GW9508. TUG891 inhibited the phagocytosis of alveolar macrophages, and LPS treatment counteracted the effects of TUG891 on phagocytosis. These results indicate that pretreatment with LPS inhibits GPR120 expression and activation in macrophages. It is suggested that LPS‐induced inhibition of GPR120 expression is a reaction enhancing the LPS‐induced pro‐inflammatory response of macrophages. 相似文献

Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are essential immunoreceptors involved in host defence against invading microbes. Recent studies indicate that certain TLRs activate immunological autophagy to eliminate microbes. It remains unknown whether TLRs regulate autophagy to play a role in the heart. This study examined this question. The activation of TLR3 in cultured cardiomyocytes was observed to increase protein levels of autophagic components, including LC3‐II, a specific marker for autophagy induction, and p62/SQSTM1, an autophagy receptor normally degraded in the final step of autophagy. The results of transfection with a tandem mRFP‐GFP‐LC3 adenovirus and use of an autophagic flux inhibitor chloroquine both suggested that TLR3 in cardiomyocytes promotes autophagy induction without affecting autophagic flux. Gene‐knockdown experiments showed that the TRIF‐dependent pathway mediated the autophagic effect of TLR3. In the mouse model of chronic myocardial infarction, persistent autophagy was observed, concomitant with up‐regulated TLR3 expression and increased TLR3‐Trif signalling. Germline knockout (KO) of TLR3 inhibited autophagy, reduced infarct size, attenuated heart failure and improved survival. These protective effects were abolished by in vivo administration of an autophagy inducer rapamycin. Similar to the results obtained in cultured cardiomyocytes, TLR3‐KO did not prevent autophagic flux in mouse heart. Additionally, this study failed to detect the involvement of inflammation in TLR3‐KO‐derived protection, as wild‐type and TLR3‐KO hearts were comparable in inflammatory activity. It is concluded that up‐regulated TLR3 expression and signalling contributes to persistent autophagy following MI, which promotes heart failure and lethality. 相似文献

草鱼呼肠孤病毒HZ08株S4基因序列分析 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
草鱼呼肠孤病毒HZ08株是本实验室从患出血病草鱼体内分离到的一个新毒株,已完成部分基因序列的分析,其氨基酸序列的同源性和873株相比,仅为20%~30%之间.因序列差异较大,无法通过设计特异性引物来扩增和分析其基因序列,采用单引物扩增技术,对HZ08株S4基因进行序列分析表明:S4全长为2263 bp,最大的ORF编码717个氨基酸,推导出其表达的蛋白约为79 kDa.正如其他基因节段,基因末端也含有保守碱基序列5′(GUAAUUU…UUCAUC),3′.S4基因推导的氨基酸序列与同宿主的其他呼肠孤病毒的非结构蛋白NS1同源性最大,其次是和哺乳动物正呼肠孤病毒的非结构蛋白mu-NS以及禽呼肠孤病毒非结构蛋白NS1同源性较大,表明S4可能表达细胞骨架相关蛋白.基于S4推导出的氨基酸序列构建的系统进化树HZ08株单独作为一个分支,与同宿主的其他呼肠孤病毒亲缘关系比较近,而与其他呼肠孤病毒则相对较远.这提示HZ08株可能是多个毒株的遗传信息经长期的遗传进化而得,综合其它已知序列信息,推测HZ08株可能为呼肠孤病毒的一个新成员. 相似文献

Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) recognize common structural patterns in diverse microbial molecules and play central roles in the innate immune response. The structures of extracellular domains and their ligand complexes of several TLRs have been determined by X‐ray crystallography. Here, we discuss recent advances on structures and activation mechanisms of TLRs. Despite the differences in interaction areas of ligand with TLRs, the extracellular domains of TLRs all adopt horseshoe‐shaped structures and the overall M‐shape of the TLR–ligand complexes is strikingly similar. The structural rearrangement information of TLRs sheds new light on their ligand‐recognition and ‐activation mechanisms. Proteins 2016; 85:3–9. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Although amphotericin B (AmB) is a major polyene antibiotic against invasive fungal infection, administration to patients sometimes causes inflammatory side effects, which limits the usage of the antibiotic. We studied the intracellular signaling that was induced by AmB. p65 (RelA) of nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB), a well‐known signaling molecule as an inducer of proinflammatory cytokines, was phosphorylated by AmB in RAW264.7 cells, a monocyte‐like cell line. Among chemical inhibitors of signaling molecules, U‐73122 (phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor), Gö6976 (protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor), BAPTA‐AM (calcium chelator), LFM‐A13 (Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk)‐specific inhibitor), and PP2 (c‐Src kinase inhibitor) suppressed AmB‐induced phosphorylation of p65 and translocation of p65 into the nucleus. U‐73122 and Gö6976 reduced AmB‐mediated induction of proinflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α and interleukin (IL)‐6) in RAW264.7 cells. Furthermore, AmB‐induced activation of NF‐ κ B was observed in toll‐like receptor (TLR) 2‐expressed cells, and the activation of NF‐κB was inhibited by U‐73122, whereas peptidoglycan‐induced NF‐κB activation, which was also dependent on TLR2, was not inhibited by U‐73122. Finally, U‐73122 partially suppressed in vivo production of TNF‐α and IL‐6 induced by AmB administration in BALB/c mice. These results suggested that the signaling from AmB stimulation to proinflammatory cytokine production is mediated by TLR2, Btk, PLC, PKC, c‐Src and NF‐κB. These signaling molecules may become a target for chemotherapy suppressing AmB‐induced proinflammatory cytokine production. 相似文献

Lipoproteins of Mycoplasma salivarium and Mycoplasma fermentans preferentially induced necrotic cell death in lymphocytic cell lines, MOLT-4 and Raji, and in one monocytic cell line, THP-1, whereas they preferentially induced apoptotic cell death in another monocytic cell line, HL-60. These findings were also supported by ultrastructural observations by the use of scanning and transmission electron microscopes and by agarose gel electrophoresis of the genomic DNA. The lipoproteins activated caspase-3 in both MOLT-4 and HL-60 cells, which was assessed by the cleavage of the synthetic substrate DEVD-pNA and the endogenous substrate poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. The cytotoxicity to MOLT-4 and HL-60 cells was inhibited by various caspase inhibitors, Ac-DMQD-CHO, Ac-IETD-CHO, and Z-VAD-FMK. The cytotoxicity was also partially suppressed by the monoclonal antibody to Toll-like receptor 2. Thus this study demonstrated that mycoplasmal lipoproteins induce caspases-dependent necrotic and apoptotic cell death in lymphocytes and monocytes/macrophages, which is partially induced by TLR2-mediated signaling. 相似文献

The cytokine-inducing activities of fungal polysaccharides were examined in human monocytes in culture, with special reference to CD14 and Toll-like receptors (TLRs). Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) production by monocytes was markedly induced in a dose-dependent manner upon stimulation with cell walls from Candida albicans and mannan from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and C. albicans, although relatively high concentrations (10 to 100 microg/ml) of stimulants were required for activation as compared with the reference lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (1 to 10 ng/ml). The yeast form C. albicans and its mannan and cell wall fractions exhibited higher TNF-alpha production than respective preparations from the hyphal form. Only slight TNF-alpha production was induced by the S. cerevisiae glucan. The TNF-alpha production triggered by reference LPS and purified fungal mannans required the presence of LPS-binding protein (LBP), and these responses were inhibited by anti-CD14 and anti-TLR4 antibodies, but not by anti-TLR2 antibody. In contrast to the activity of LPS, the activity of purified S. cerevisiae mannan was not inhibited by polymyxin B. These findings suggested that the mannan-LBP complex is recognized by CD14 on monocytes and that signaling through TLR4 leads to the production of proinflammatory cytokines in a manner similar to that induced by LPS. 相似文献

Reprogramming of toll‐like receptor 4 (TLR4) by brief ischemia or lipopolysacharide (LPS) contributes to superintending tolerance against destructive ischemia in brain. However, beneficial roles of TLR4 signaling in ischemic retina are not well known. This study demonstrated that preconditioning with LPS 48 h prior to the retinal ischemia prevents the cellular damage in morphology with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and functions of retina with electroretinogram (ERG), while post‐ischemia treatment deteriorated it. The preventive effects of LPS preconditioning showed the cell type‐specificity of retinal cells. There was complete rescue of ganglion cells, partial rescue of bipolar and photoreceptor cells or no rescue of amacrine cells, respectively. LPS treatment caused the proliferation and migration of retinal microglia and its preconditioning prevented the ischemia‐induced microglial activation. Preventive actions from cell damages following LPS preconditioning prior to retinal ischemia were abolished in TLR4 knock‐out mice, and by pre‐treatments with anti‐TLR4 antibody or minocycline, a microglia inhibitor, which themselves had no effects on the retinal ischemia‐induced damages or microglia activation. Thus, this study revealed that TLR4 mediates the LPS preconditioning‐induced preventive effects through microglial activation in the retinal ischemia model. 相似文献

Endogenous nucleic acids and their receptors may be involved in the initiation of systemic autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid arthritis (RA). As the role of the DNA sensing Toll‐like receptor (TLR) 9 in RA is unclear, we aimed to investigate its involvement in the pathogenesis of autoimmune arthritis using three different experimental models of RA. The data obtained revealed involvement of TLR9 in the T cell‐dependent phase of inflammatory arthritis. In rats with pristane‐induced arthritis (PIA), TLR9 inhibition before disease onset reduced arthritis significantly and almost completely abolished bone erosion. Accordingly, serum levels of IL‐6, α‐1‐acid‐glycoprotein and rheumatoid factor were reduced. Moreover, in TLR9?/? mice, streptococcal cell wall (SCW)‐induced arthritis was reduced in the T cell‐dependent phase, whereas T cell‐independent serum‐transfer arthritis was not affected. Remarkably, while TLR7 expression did not change during in vitro osteoclastogenesis, TLR9 expression was higher in precursor cells than in mature osteoclasts and partial inhibition of osteoclastogenesis was achieved only by the TLR9 antagonist. These results demonstrate a pivotal role for TLR9 in the T cell‐dependent phases of inflammatory arthritis and additionally suggest some role during osteoclastogenesis. Hence, endogenous DNA seems to be crucially involved in the pathophysiology of inflammatory autoimmune arthritis. 相似文献

Vaccinia virus (VACV) encodes many proteins that interfere with the host immune system. Vaccinia virus A46 protein specifically targets the BB‐loop motif of TIR‐domain‐containing proteins to disrupt receptor:adaptor (e.g., TLR4:MAL and TLR4:TRAM) interactions of the toll‐like receptor signaling. The crystal structure of A46 (75–227) determined at 2.58 Å resolution showed that A46 formed a homodimer and adopted a Bcl‐2‐like fold similar to other VACV proteins such as A52, B14, and K7. Our structure also revealed that VIPER (viral inhibitory peptide of TLR4) motif resides in the α1‐helix and six residues of the VIPER region were exposed to surface for binding to target proteins. In vitro binding assays between wild type and six mutants A46 (75–227) and full‐length MAL identified critical residues in the VIPER motif. Computational modeling of the A46:MAL complex structure showed that the VIPER region of A46 and AB loop of MAL protein formed a major binding interface. In summary, A46 is a homodimer with a Bcl‐2‐like fold and VIPER motif is believed to be involved in the interaction with MAL protein based on our binding assays. 相似文献

Because little is known about how the innate immune response influences skin pigmentation, we examined whether Toll‐like receptor (TLR) agonists participate in melanogenesis and melanosome transportation. We observed that TLR2/2 agonist HKLM and TLR3 agonist Poly(I:C) increased the amount of extracellular melanin from primary human epidermal melanocytes. HKLM, but not Poly(I:C), increased the melanogenic genes such as tyrosinase and dopachrome tautomerase. Poly(I:C) increased the expression of Rab27A, a molecule that facilitates melanosome transport to perimembranous actin filament. UVB irradiation induced Rab27A and melanosome transportation in a similar manner of Poly(I:C). SiRNA for TLR3 or Rab27A suppressed the perimembranous accumulation of Gp100‐positive vesicles in melanocytes and decreased melanin transfer to neighboring keratinocytes induced by both Poly(I:C) and UVB. These results suggest that the microenvironment in the epidermis and innate immune stimuli, such as microbiome and ultraviolet represented here by TLR2 and TLR3 agonists, could affect the melanogenesis in human melanocytes. 相似文献
