Toll样受体(TLR)识别各种病原体中特定分子模式的概念已经建立。在通过TLR的信号转导中,MyD 88(其具有Toll/IL-1受体(TIR)-结构域和死亡结构域)已显示在TLR和MyD 88依赖性下游事件之间连接,导致促炎细胞因子产生和脾细胞增殖。然而,最近使用MyD 88缺陷小鼠的研究表明,一些TLR具有MyD 88非依赖性途径,其代表为LPS刺激诱导的干扰素(IFN)-β产生。这表明TLR信号通路中存在MyD 88以外的其他信号分子。事实上,最近已经鉴定了另外两种含有TIR结构域的衔接子TIRAP/Mal和TRIF。两者都定义了每种TLR的特定生物学反应。(C)2003 Elsevier Ltd.保留所有权利。
The concept that Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize specific molecular patterns in various pathogens has been established. In signal transduction via TLRs, MyD88, which harbors a Toll/IL-1 receptor (TIR)-domain and a death domain, has been shown to link between TLRs and MyD88-dependent downstream events leading to proinflammatory cytokine production and splenocyte proliferation. However, recent studies using MyD88-deficient mice have revealed that some TLRs possess a MyD88-independent pathway, which is represented by interferon (IFN)-beta production induced by LPS stimulation. This indicates that additional signaling molecules other than MyD88 exist in the TLR signaling pathway. Indeed, two additional TIR domain-containing adaptors, TIRAP/Mal and TRIF, have recently been identified. Both define the specific biological responses of each TLR. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd.
