Abstract
Background: Sepsis is a syndrome due to microbial infection causing impaired multiorgan function. Its underlying cause is immune dysfunction and macrophages play an essential role. Methods: TIRAP interaction with PKCδ in macrophage was studied, revealing downstream signaling by Western blot and quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR. Dorzolamide (DZD) disrupting TIRAP-PKCδ interaction was identified by virtual screening and validated in vitro and in septic mice. Results: The study highlights the indispensable role of TIRAP-PKCδ in p38 MAPK-activation, NF-κB- and AP-1-mediated proinflammatory cytokines expression, whereas DZD significantly attenuated the signaling. Conclusion: Targeting TIRAP-PKCδ interaction by DZD is a novel therapeutic approach for treating sepsis.

Int Immunopharmacol 2023; 119:110176. [PMID: 37104916 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.110176] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2023] [Revised: 04/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/08/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023]
Abstract
Adaptor proteins represent key signalling molecules involved in regulating immune responses. The host's innate immune system recognizes pathogens via various surface and intracellular receptors. Adaptor molecules are centrally involved in different receptor-mediated signalling pathways, acting as bridges between the receptors and other molecules. The presence of adaptors in major signalling pathways involved in the pathogenesis of various chronic inflammatory diseases has drawn attention toward the role of these proteins in such diseases. In this review, we summarize the importance and roles of different adaptor molecules in macrophage-mediated signalling in various chronic disease states. We highlight the mechanistic roles of adaptors and how they are involved in protein-protein interactions (PPI) via different domains to carry out signalling. Hence, we also provide insights into how targeting these adaptor proteins can be a good therapeutic strategy against various chronic inflammatory diseases.

TIRAP, TRAM, and Toll-Like Receptors: The Untold Story. Mediators Inflamm 2023; 2023:2899271. [PMID: 36926280 PMCID: PMC10014160 DOI: 10.1155/2023/2899271] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2022] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/06/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are the most studied receptors among the pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). They act as microbial sensors, playing major roles in the regulation of the innate immune system. TLRs mediate their cellular functions through the activation of MyD88-dependent or MyD88-independent signaling pathways. Myd88, or myeloid differentiation primary response 88, is a cytosolic adaptor protein essential for the induction of proinflammatory cytokines by all TLRs except TLR3. While the crucial role of Myd88 is well described, the contribution of other adaptors in mediating TLR signaling and function has been underestimated. In this review, we highlight important results demonstrating that TIRAP and TRAM adaptors are also required for full signaling activity and responses induced by most TLRs.
