Macrophage Response to LPS, poly(I:C) and CpG DNA Stimulation

ABSTRACT: Molecular Pathways and Transcriptional Networks Involved in the Macrophage Response to LPS, poly(I:C) and CpG DNA Stimulation Background: Toll-like family of receptors recognizes pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) from different organisms. TLR4 is the receptor for bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), dsRNA viral mimic poly(I:C) binds to TLR3, and bacterial CpG DNA signals through TLR9. TLR4 signaling is mediated by adaptor molecules Myd88 and TRIF while TLR3 pathway involves only the TRIF adaptor and TLR9 signals solely through Myd88. Methods: To identify genes other than those in TLR pathways that mediate macrophage response to different PAMPs, RAW264.7 cells were stimulated with LPS, poly(I:C), or CpG DNA, and RNA was profiled on microarrays 6 hrs and 24 hrs post-tre
