TLR9
Toll样受体9（英语：Toll-like receptor 9）是由人类基因 TLR9 编码的蛋白质[1]，也被称为CD289（分化簇289，cluster of differentiation 289），是Toll样受体（TLR）家族的成员。
功能
[编辑]TLR家族的受体在病原识别与先天免疫的激活中起着基础作用。TLRs are named for the high degree of conservation in structure and function seen between mammalian TLRs and the Drosophila transmembrane protein Toll. TLRs是呈现在细胞表面和胞内间室的跨膜蛋白，用以识别病原体呈现的病原相关分子模式（Pathogen-associated molecular patterns，PAMPs），然后启动制造先天和获得性免疫所需的细胞因子的信号。 The various TLRs exhibit different patterns of expression. 这一基因通常表达于富含免疫细胞的组织，比如脾、淋巴结、骨髓等。研究指出，在小鼠和人中的TLR9受体可响应细菌DNA中的未甲基化的CpG寡脱氧核苷酸序列来激活先天免疫应答[2]。
TLR9可以识别DNA分子中的未甲基化的CpG序列，CpG位点在脊椎动物非常稀少（~1%），但在细菌或病毒基因组中很丰富。TLR9在免疫系统的多种细胞中有表达，如B淋巴细胞、单核细胞、自然杀伤细胞（NK）和浆细胞样树突状细胞。TLR9表达于细胞内，是核内体的组分之一，其功能为当细菌或病毒感染时结合其DNA上的富CpG基序来改变免疫系统的状态。TLR9的信号会导致细胞启动炎症反应，并分泌相关细胞因子，如I型干扰素和IL-12等。
临床意义
[编辑]There are new immunomodulatory treatments undergoing testing which involve the administration of artificial DNA oligonucleotides containing the CpG motif. CpG DNA has applications in treating allergies such as asthma,[3] immunostimulation against cancer,[4] immunostimulation against pathogens, and as adjuvants in vaccines.[5]
