Figure 10From: Characterization of Toll-like receptors in primary lung epithelial cells: strong impact of the TLR3 ligand poly(I:C) on the regulation of Toll-like receptors, adaptor proteins and inflammatory responseExpression of proteins involved in TLR signaling in stimulated primary small-airway-epithelial cells (SAEC). SAEC were stimulated for 24 h with the indicated cytokines. MyD88, TRIF, TOLLIP, TIRAP, IRAK-2 and IRAK-3 protein expression was analyzed by Western blotting. A β-actin loading control is shown below. No changes of the protein expression of IRAK-1 and IRAK-4 were observed in the stimulated cells (data not shown).Back to article page
