Direct stimulation of cellular immune response via TLR2 signaling triggered by contact with hybrid glyco-biointerfaces composed of chitohexaose and cellohexaose.
Recognition of carbohydrates by cell receptors activates various cell signaling processes. In this report, hybrid self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of chitohexaose (βGlcNAc6) and cellohexaose (βGlc6) are prepared to induce a highly sensitive, glyco-density-dependent inflammatory response by HEK293 cells expressing toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), which recognizes oligo-βGlcNAc moieties. Thiosemicarbazide-labeled βGlcNAc6 and βGlc6, as a bio-signal inducer and a spacer molecule, respectively, were immobilized on a gold substrate via spontaneous chemisorption to control the βGlcNAc6 density on the SAM surface. The βGlcNAc6 density ranged from 0 to 0.65 chains nm Topics: HEK293 Cells; Humans; Immunity, Cellular; Inflammation; Oligosaccharides; Signal Transduction; Toll-Like Receptor 2 | 2019 |
