High impact information on TLR2

  • Preinfection of bovine MPhi by BVDV resulted in upregulation of TLR2- and TLR4-mediated NO synthesis [1].
  • Thus, the amount of TLR2, TLR3 and TLR4 mRNA transcripts is stable at least under the conditions tested [1].
  • However, NO production induced by TLR2 or TLR4 agonists was strongly modulated either by IFN-gamma costimulation or BVDV preinfection [1].
  • In addition, we will show the expression of TLR mRNA in bovine antigen-presenting cell subsets, summarise the discovery and the critical roles of TLR2 in host defence against Mycobacteria, and provide evidence for a mycobacteria species-specific response of bovine macrophages [2].
  • IL-1, TNF, and TLR2 and TLR4 were greatest (P < 0.05) for Cnt only at day 14 [3].
 

Anatomical context of TLR2

  • The number of TLR2 copies correlated well with those of TLR4, indicating coordinated regulation of these two PRRs during infection of the udder [4].
 

Regulatory relationships of TLR2

  • Toll-like receptor 2 expression was enhanced with Both compared to either DEX (P < 0.05) or GH (P < 0.05) and tended to be greater than Cnt expression (P = 0.07) [3].
