Toll like receptors: a new hope on the horizon to treat multiple sclerosis

Abstract: Evolving data have shown that the toll like receptors (TLRs) family of innate immune receptors has an important role in driving the activation and inhibition of pathogenic pathways involved in multiple sclerosis (MS). While developing clinical trials targeting MS by TLRs modulators are of considerable interest, several of them have failed. Herein, the various consequences of TLRs pathways activation and the potential of targeting these receptors for therapeutic purposes are described. In particular, different … Show more

“…Since MyD88 is essential for most TLRs (except TLR3 and part of TLR4), inhibition of MyD88 is expected to have a therapeutic effect on MS. For example, the short form of MyD88 (sMyD88) can inhibit TLR-MyD88 signaling by preventing IRAK1 phosphorylation. BB-loop decoy peptides inhibit the TLR-MyD88 signaling pathway by interfering with the MyD88 TIR domain or the full-length MyD88 (Gooshe et al, 2014b).…”

“…These are expressed in various immune and non-immune cells and most CNS cells like microglia, astrocyte, neuron and oligodendrocyte. Activation of subsequent pathways with TLRs could trigger the production of proin ammatory cytokines like IL-1, IL-12, and TNFα and induce pro-in ammatory pathways, such as NFκB and MAPK [ 10,11]. Different stimuli activate the NFB pathway, which then translocate to nuclei.…”

“…Indeed, TLRs activation lead to the recruitment of adaptor proteins within the cytosol, that culminates in signal transduction resulting in the transcription of genes involved in chronic inflammation [ 72 , 73 ]. TLRs were initially identified as receptors important only in host defences, but it is now clear that the TLRs, for example TLR2 and TLR4, are crucial in autoimmunity development [ 74 , 75 , 76 ], as demonstrated in RA [ 74 ], SLE [ 77 ], multiple sclerosis [ 78 ], and inflammatory bowel diseases [ 79 ]. Studies comparing mice and humans revealed that numerous types of epithelial cells express TLRs, supporting the hypothesis that the epithelium represents the first line of defence of the innate immune system [ 80 , 81 ].…”
