| Abstract | Toll-like receptors 2 and 4 (TLR2 and TLR4) have been found to transduce signals of peptidoglycan (PGN) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS), respectively, for NF-κB activation. However, little is known about the expression and regulation of the TLR2 gene in monocytes/macrophages in response to the two typical bacterial products. We show in the present study that both PGN and a high concentration of LPS increase TLR2 gene expression in macrophage-like cells, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-differentiated human HL60 and mouse RAW264.7 cells, and human monocytes in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Actinomycin D and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate inhibition of gene transcription and NF-κB activation, respectively, blocks LPS- and PGN-elevated TLR2 mRNA in monocytic cells. The LPS-induced increase in TLR2 mRNA in monocytic cells is abolished by polymyxin B pretreatment and is observed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from pigs subjected to endotoxic shock. Further, high concentrations of LPS and synthetic lipid A increase TLR2 mRNA expression in peritoneal macrophages from both TLR4-deficient C3H/HeJ mice and normal C3H/HeN mice, a process that constitutes induction of TLR4-independent TLR2 expression. These findings demonstrate that TLR2 gene expression is upregulated in macrophage responses to PGN and to high concentrations of LPS in vitro and in vivo and correlates with NF-κB activation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
