Beschreibung:
Members of the Toll-like receptor (TLR) and interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R) superfamily share an intracytoplasmic Toll-IL-1 receptor (TIR) domain, which mediates recruitment of the interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK) complex via TIR-containing adapter molecules. We describe three unrelated children with inherited IRAK-4 deficiency. Their blood and fibroblast cells did not activate nuclear factor kappaB and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and failed to induce downstream cytokines in response to any of the known ligands of TIR-bearing receptors. The otherwise healthy children developed infections caused by pyogenic bacteria. These findings suggest that, in humans, the TIR-IRAK signaling pathway is crucial for protective immunity against specific bacteria but is redundant against most other microorganisms.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Picard, Capucine -- Puel, Anne -- Bonnet, Marion -- Ku, Cheng-Lung -- Bustamante, Jacinta -- Yang, Kun -- Soudais, Claire -- Dupuis, Stephanie -- Feinberg, Jacqueline -- Fieschi, Claire -- Elbim, Carole -- Hitchcock, Remi -- Lammas, David -- Davies, Graham -- Al-Ghonaium, Abdulaziz -- Al-Rayes, Hassan -- Al-Jumaah, Sulaiman -- Al-Hajjar, Sami -- Al-Mohsen, Ibrahim Zaid -- Frayha, Husn H -- Rucker, Rajivi -- Hawn, Thomas R -- Aderem, Alan -- Tufenkeji, Haysam -- Haraguchi, Soichi -- Day, Noorbibi K -- Good, Robert A -- Gougerot-Pocidalo, Marie-Anne -- Ozinsky, Adrian -- Casanova, Jean-Laurent -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Mar 28;299(5615):2076-9.
