Abstract

TLR4, a transmembrane receptor, plays a central role in the innate immune response. TLR4 not only engages with exogenous ligands at the cellular membrane's surface but also interacts with intracellular ligands, initiating intricate intracellular signaling cascades. Through MyD88, an adaptor protein, TLR4 activates transcription factors NF-κB and AP-1, thereby facilitating the upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Another adapter protein linked to TLR4, known as TRIF, autonomously propagates signaling pathways, resulting in heightened interferon expression. Recently, TLR4 has garnered attention as a significant factor in the regulation of symptoms in aging-related disorders. The persistent inflammatory response triggered by TLR4 contributes to the onset and exacerbation of these disorders. In addition, alterations in TLR4 expression levels play a pivotal role in modifying the manifestations of age-related diseases. In this review, we aim to consolidate the impact of TLR4 on cellular senescence and aging-related ailments, highlighting the potential of TLR4 as a novel therapeutic target that extends beyond immune responses.

摘要

Toll样受体4(TLR4)是一种跨膜受体,在先天性免疫反应中起核心作用。TLR4不仅在细胞膜表面与外源性配体结合,还与细胞内配体相互作用,引发复杂的细胞内信号级联反应。通过衔接蛋白髓样分化因子88(MyD88),TLR4激活转录因子核因子κB(NF-κB)和活化蛋白-1(AP-1),从而促进促炎细胞因子的上调。另一种与TLR4相关的衔接蛋白,称为TIR结构域衔接蛋白诱导干扰素β(TRIF),自主传播信号通路,导致干扰素表达增加。最近,TLR4作为衰老相关疾病症状调节中的一个重要因素而受到关注。TLR4引发的持续炎症反应促成了这些疾病的发生和加重。此外,TLR4表达水平的改变在改变衰老相关疾病的表现方面起关键作用。在这篇综述中,我们旨在巩固TLR4对细胞衰老和衰老相关疾病的影响,强调TLR4作为一种超越免疫反应的新型治疗靶点的潜力。
