Advances in Toll-like Receptor Signaling Pathway Induced by Pyrogens / 中国药师

Lipopolysaccharide(LPS),lipteichoic acid(LTA) and zymosan can be recognized by Toll-like receptors (TLRs) ex-pressing in the inflammatory cells membrane,such as macrophages,monocytes and endothelial cells,and then induce the secretion of pyrogenic cytokines followed by triggering inflammatory reaction. The signaling pathway mechanisms were summarized, including the extracellular signaling cascades from pyrogens to individual TLRs,and intracellular signaling cascades from TLRs to nucleus.
