TLR5 Gene

Name toll-like receptor 5
Description This gene encodes a member of the toll-like receptor (TLR) family, which plays a fundamental role in pathogen recognition and activation of innate immune responses. These receptors recognize distinct pathogen-associated molecular patterns that are expressed on infectious agents. The protein encoded by this gene recognizes bacterial flagellin, the principal component of bacterial flagella and a virulence factor. The activation of this receptor mobilizes the nuclear factor NF-kappaB, which in turn activates a host of inflammatory-related target genes. Mutations in this gene have been associated with both resistance and susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus, and susceptibility to Legionnaire disease.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nToll‐like receptor 5 (TLR5) is a pattern‐recognition receptor that detects bacterial flagellin by binding to a conserved region essential for flagellar assembly and motility. Its activation rapidly triggers signaling cascades, including NF‐κB and MAP kinase pathways, leading to the production of inflammatory mediators such as IL‑8 in epithelial cells. Structure–function studies have mapped key regions in flagellin and TLR5 that determine this recognition, and repeated exposure can induce a state of tolerance by altering downstream adaptor release."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "1", "end_ref": "6"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn addition to its role in epithelial cells, TLR5 is expressed by several immune cell types where its engagement modulates both innate and adaptive immune responses. Stimulation of TLR5 on dendritic cells can directly induce cellular maturation and chemokine secretion, thus promoting T‑cell activation. Moreover, direct TLR5 signaling in CD4⁺ T cells enhances effector responses or, in regulatory T cells, potentiates suppressive activity. Such modulation is evident in studies of vaccine responses and in experimental systems where TLR5‐mediated signals are exploited (for example, by nanoparticle formulations) to reprogram immunosuppressive dendritic cells."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "7", "end_ref": "13"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nBeyond host defense, TLR5 signaling has been implicated in the pathogenesis and progression of diverse diseases.
