Abstract:Background: Besides regulating the antiviral response, increased expression of Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) in resident renal cells plays a role in the development of some forms of glomerulonephritis. TLR3 activation leads to the production of type I interferon (IFN), which subsequently induces the expression of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). We previously reported that in glomerular resident cells, ISG20 expression is regulated via TLR3/ IFN-β signaling, however, its detailed implications remain undetermined. Me… Show more
