Visintin, Alberto, Latz, Eicke, Monks, Brian G., Espevik, Terje, Golenbock, Douglas

Three cell-surface proteins have been recognized as components of the mammalian signaling receptor for bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS): CD14, Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4), and MD-2. Biochemical and...

Lipopolysaccharide rapidly traffics to and from the Golgi apparatus with the toll-like receptor 4-MD-2-CD14 complex in a process that is distinct from the initiation of signal transduction (2002)

Latz, Eicke, Visintin, Alberto, Lien, Egil, Fitzgerald, Kate A., Monks, Brian G., Kurt-Jones, Evelyn A., ...

Mammalian responses to LPS require the expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), CD14, and MD-2. We expressed fluorescent TLR4 in cell lines and found that TLR4 densely localized to the surface and...

Human Cytomegalovirus Activates Inflammatory Cytokine Responses via CD14 and Toll-Like Receptor 2

Compton, Teresa, Kurt-Jones, Evelyn A., Boehme, Karl W., Belko, John, Latz, Eicke, Golenbock, Douglas T., ...

Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a ubiquitous opportunistic pathogen that causes significant morbidity and mortality in immuncompromised people. An understanding of how CMV induces and circumvents host...

Receptor “cross talk” in innate immunity

Latz, Eicke, Golenbock, Douglas T.

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize microbial molecular signatures and can initiate innate immune responses against invading pathogens. A new study reports how TLR2 expression by endothelia is...

Human lupus autoantibody–DNA complexes activate DCs through cooperation of CD32 and TLR9

Means, Terry K., Latz, Eicke, Hayashi, Fumitaka, Murali, Mandakolathur R., Golenbock, Douglas T., Luster, Andrew D.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by pathogenic autoantibodies against nucleoproteins and DNA. Here we show that DNA-containing immune complexes (ICs) within...

Comparative Toll-Like Receptor 4-Mediated Innate Host Defense to Bordetella Infection

Mann, Paul B., Wolfe, Daniel, Latz, Eicke, Golenbock, Douglas, Preston, Andrew, Harvill, Eric T.

Bordetella pertussis, B. parapertussis, and B. bronchiseptica are closely related species associated with respiratory disease in humans and other mammals. While B. bronchiseptica has a wide host...

The myristoylation of TRIF-related adaptor molecule is essential for Toll-like receptor 4 signal transduction

Rowe, Daniel C., McGettrick, Anne F., Latz, Eicke, Monks, Brian G., Gay, Nicholas J., Yamamoto, Masahiro, ...

TRIF-related adaptor molecule (TRAM) is the fourth Toll/IL-1 resistance domain-containing adaptor to be described that participates in Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling. TRAM functions exclusively...

Endocytic pathways regulate Toll-like receptor 4 signaling and link innate and adaptive immunity

Husebye, Harald, Halaas, Øyvind, Stenmark, Harald, Tunheim, Gro, Sandanger, Øystein, Bogen, Bjarne, ...
