Strategic compartmentalization of Toll-like receptor 4 in the mouse gutCesar F Ortega-Cava
Department of Internal Medicine II, Shimane Medical University, Izumo, Japan
J Immunol 170:3977-85. 2003..Our findings demonstrate that TLR4, CD14, and TLR2 are expressed in a compartmentalized manner in the mouse gut and provide novel information about the in vivo localization of PRRs...

Epithelial toll-like receptor 5 is constitutively localized in the mouse cecum and exhibits distinctive down-regulation during experimental colitisCesar F Ortega-Cava
Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Shimane University School of Medicine, 89-1 Enya-cho, Izumo-shi, Shimane 693-8501, Japan
Clin Vaccine Immunol 13:132-8. 2006..The mechanism governing TLR5 regulation may therefore differ from that controlling other PRRs. Finally, IFN-gamma may be involved in down-regulating TLR5 expression...
