Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1-mediated sustained p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase activation regulates mycoplasmal lipoprotein- and staphylococcal peptidoglycan-triggered Toll-like receptor 2 signalling pathways.

Abstract excerpt

Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 functions as a sensor for detecting various microbial components conserved in bacteria or fungi in innate immunity. TLR2 induces several signalling pathways linking to activation of the transcriptional factors NF-kappaB and AP-1 as well as induction of cell death. In human embryonic kidney 293 cells expressed human TLR2, mycoplasmal lipoproteins (MLP) or staphylococcal peptidoglycans...
