Journal ArticleDOI

Noncanonical Inflammasome Activation by Intracellular LPS Independent of TLR4

TL;DR: It is shown that macrophages loaded with synthetic lipid A, E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS), or S. typhimurium LPS activate caspase-11 independently of the LPS receptor Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), revealing a TLR4-independent mechanism for innate immune recognition of LPS.
Journal ArticleDOI

The S100A8–serum amyloid A3–TLR4 paracrine cascade establishes a pre-metastatic phase

TL;DR: It is shown that serum amyloid A (SAA) 3, which is induced in pre-metastatic lungs by S 100A8 and S100A9, has a role in the accumulation of myeloid cells and acts as a positive-feedback regulator for chemoattractant secretion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Roles for LPS-dependent interaction and relocation of TLR4 and TRAM in TRIF-signaling.

TL;DR: It is shown that TRAM recruits TRIF to the plasma membrane and the internalized signaling complex consisting of TLR4 and TRAM colocalizes with TRAF3, a signaling molecule downstream of TRIF, in endosome/lysosome after relocation from the cell surface.
Journal ArticleDOI

TLR accessory molecules.

TL;DR: It is important to understand how TLR signaling is controlled by these accessory molecules, which could be promising targets for therapeutic intervention in infectious disease and immune disorders.
