Melatonin, a toll‐like receptor inhibitor: Current status and future perspectives
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Journal of Cellular Physiology"
DOI: 10.1002/jcp.27698
Abstract: Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are crucial activators of inflammatory responses, they are considered immune receptors. TLRs are of fundamental importance in the pathophysiology of disorders related to inflammation including neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Melatonin is a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jcp.27929
Abstract: Renal proximal tubular cells (PTECs) participate in several mechanisms of innate immunity, express toll‐like receptors (TLRs), and proinflammatory cytokines. Hyperuricemia may be a promoter of inflammation and renal damage. Angiotensin II (Ang II) modulate immune… read more here.
