TLRs in the Gut.IV. Negative regulation of Toll-like receptors and intestinal homeostasis: addition by subtraction

Abstract: Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a family of transmembrane proteins that recognize conserved molecular motifs on microorganisms. Ligand binding to TLRs initiates signaling cascades that activate NF-κB, MAPK, and interferon response factors. These culminate in cellular responses including activation of antimicrobial killing mechanisms, production of cytokines and chemokines, maturation of antigen presenting cells, and the recruitment of the adaptive immune response. Intestinal epithelial cells represent a unique … Show more

“…Under normal conditions, intestinal macrophages and dendritic cells are regulated to secrete low levels of proinflammatory cytokines, such as IL-12, in response to such bacteria. Various mechanisms, including constitutive expression of inhibitory transcription factors in the mucosal phagocytes and a supply of suppressive mediators by intestinal epithelial cells, have been proposed to explain the mechanism by which proinflammatory cytokine responses are controlled (48,49). In the current study, we clearly show that LTA and WTA can convert a predominant IL-12 response to specific bacteria into a predominant IL-10 response.…”

“…Negative regulatory molecules may play a role in regulating epithelial TLR signaling, including peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor-γ; the cytoplasmic zinc finger protein, A20; and the negative regulator of TLR signaling, IRAK-M, as has been reviewed recently (199). The relevance of these molecules to signaling within epithelial cells remains to be definitely demonstrated.…”

“…Evidence for TLR4/MD-2 delivering negative signals is not without precedent. It is a characteristic of high-dose LPS tolerance, in which sustained LPS signaling can lead to immune suppression (43)(44)(45)(46). Furthermore, antagonist derivatives of LPS were shown to dampen the proinflammatory cascade associated with sepsis (38).…”
