Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize both exogenous microbial components and endogenous molecules to promote immune activation. Both immune and nonimmune renal cells express TLRs, which are involved in the pathogenesis of a number of kidney diseases, including pyelonephritis, Leptospira nephritis, immune-complex glomerulonephritis, ischemic/reperfusion injury, and rejection of kidney transplant.
Toll样受体(TLRs)可识别外源性微生物成分和内源性分子,以促进免疫激活。免疫和非免疫性肾细胞均表达TLRs,其参与多种肾脏疾病的发病机制,包括肾盂肾炎、钩端螺旋体性肾炎、免疫复合物性肾小球肾炎、缺血/再灌注损伤以及肾移植排斥反应。
