1 Alcohol feeding resulted in a significant increase in serum alanine aminotransferase levels, liver steatosis and triglyceride levels suggesting liver damage in WT, TLR2-KO, and MyD88-KO but not in TLR4-KO mice. Alcohols myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 Mus musculus
2 Expression of inflammatory mediators (tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6) and TLR4 coreceptors (CD14 and MD2) was significantly higher in livers of alcohol-fed WT, TLR2-KO, or MyD88-KO, but not in TLR4-KO mice, compared to controls. Alcohols myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 Mus musculus
3 Alcohol feeding also induced nuclear factor-kappaB activation in a TLR4-dependent MyD88-independent manner. Alcohols myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 Mus musculus
