Selective Roles for Toll-Like Receptor (TLR)2 and TLR4 in the Regulation of Neutrophil Activation and Life Span
Abstract Neutrophil responses to commercial LPS, a dual Toll-like receptor (TLR)2 and TLR4 activator, are regulated by TLR expression, but are amplified by contaminating monocyt...
Toll-Like Receptor Triggering of a Vitamin D-Mediated Human Antimicrobial Response
In innate immune responses, activation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) triggers direct antimicrobial activity against intracellular bacteria, which in murine, but not human, monoc...
Cancer immunotherapy using checkpoint blockade
The release of negative regulators of immune activation (immune checkpoints) that limit antitumor responses has resulted in unprecedented rates of long-lasting tumor responses i...
IL‐6 and NF‐IL6 in Acute‐Phase Response and Viral Infection
NF-IL6 was originally identified as a DNA-binding protein responsible for IL-1-stimulated IL-6 induction. Direct cloning of NF-IL6 revealed its homology with C/EBP. C/EBP is exp...
Blockade of Interleukin-6 Signaling Suppresses Not Only Th17 but Also Interphotoreceptor Retinoid Binding Protein–Specific Th1 by Promoting Regulatory T Cells in Experimental Autoimmune Uveoretinitis
PURPOSE. Both Th17 and Th1 cells contribute to experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis (EAU). Interleukin-6 (IL-6) blockade inhibits Th17 differentiation in EAU and potently suppr...
