Abstract:
Toll-like receptor 5(TLR5)is a pattern recognition receptor,the main extracellular receptor for recognizing flagel-lin,and a bridge between innate and adaptive immunity.It can activate innate immunity and induce the release of a series of down-stream cytokines,as well as play an important role in protecting the host from flagellated pathogens and establishing immune tolerance.These functions are related to the pathogenesis of obesity hypertension in various aspects.This article aims to review the relationship between TLR5 and obese hypertension,as well as the new progress on the interaction between TLR5 and flagellin structure and func-tion,and discuss the future research directions and challenges.
