Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are important pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that are critical for the defense against invading pathogens. IL-1β is an important pro-inflammatory cytokine that also plays pivotal roles in shaping the adaptive immune response. TLRs and interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R) share similar cytosolic domains and signaling processes. In this study, we identify the E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF152 as a positive regulator of TLR/IL-1R-mediated signaling. Overexpression of RNF152 pote ...[more]
