Table 1. Different subtypes of TLRs and their identified PAMPs.
TLRs | PAMPs | Biological activity | Reference |
---|---|---|---|
TLR2/TLR6 TLR2/TLR1 | The lipoproteins of bacteria or mycoplasma. Lipopeptide (MALP-2), Peptidogl, ycan (PGN) | Activate intracellular signal NF-KB, induce adhesion molecules and inflammatory cytokines. | Zhu et al. (2010), Basto & Leitao (2014), Kaisho & Akira (2002) |
TLR4 | Lipopolysaccharides(LPS), Heat shock protein (HSP), β-defensin, Heparin-binding hemagglutinin(HBHA) | Induce the expression of adhesion molecules and inflammatory cytokines. | Reed et al. (2016), Kaisho & Akira (2002) |
TLR5 | Gram-negative bacteria flagellin | The potent proinflammatory activity by inducing NF-KB activation, and expression of IL-8 and inducible NO synthase in intestinal epithelial cells. | Kaisho & Akira (2002), Moyle (2017) |
TLR3 | Double-stranded RNA (ds RNA), Poly(I:C) | Induce IL-12 production and DC maturation and elevate CD40 expression on APCs. | Kaisho & Akira (2002), Cheng et al. (2018) |
TLR7/TLR8 | Single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) | Induce the expression of adhesion molecules and inflammatory cytokines | Vasilakos & Tomai (2013) |
TLR9 | CpG DNA, Hemozoin, Herpes simplex virus DNA | Production of Th1 cytokines and promotion of cytotoxic activity of NK cells. | Zhu et al. (2010), Kaisho & Akira (2002) |
