ABSTRACT
Recently accumulating evidence has shown that innate immunity recognition of invading pathogens can be attributed mainly to the Toll-like receptor (TLR) family.TLR signaling can induce the production of proinflammatory cytokines and upregulate expression of costimulatory molecules to provoke rapid activation of innate immuniry. Activated innate immunity subsequently leads to effective adaptive immunity. It, thereby, activites not only innate but ultimately also adaptive immunity. It can mediate activation of many kinds of cells, such as immune cells, hepatocytes et al. Upon binding to its respective ligands, TLR can activate signal transduction cascades leading to activation of transcription factors and protein kinases such as NF-?B and MAPK, and expression of immune response genes. Besides,TLR family may be involved in the pathogenesis of inflammation via recognition of host products. Inhibition of TLR action may work as anti-inflammatory drugs, and possibly also as agents to treat autoimmune diseases.Thus,the increasing understanding of TLR system could be the basis for treating a variety of pathological conditions.
