<h4>Background & aims</h4>The Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 mediates homeostasis of the intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) barrier. We investigated the effects of TLR4-D299G on IEC functions.<h4>Methods</h4>We engineered IECs (Caco-2) to stably overexpress hemagglutinin-tagged wild-type TLR4, TLR4-D299G, or TLR4-T399I. We performed gene expression profiling using DNA microarray analysis. Findings were confirmed by real-time, quantitative, reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, immunoblot, e ...[more]
