Outline of Final Research Achievements |
TLR3 recognizes double-stranded RNA and mediate innate immune response. TICAM-1 acts as adaptor molecule for TLR3-mediated downstream signaling. In this study, we searched components of TICAM-1-signalosome, which is a protein complex acted as scaffold for TICAM-1-mediated innate immune signal transduction. Some proteins was identified as TICAM-1-signalosome components. From these, 14-3-3-zeta, a cytosolic proteins, was indispensable for TICAM-1-mediated inflammatory cytokine production and type I interferon production. Furthermore, 14-3-3-zeta is associated with TICAM-1-signalosome formation. These result suggested that 14-3-3-zeta is a novel component in TICAM-1-signalosome.
