Abstract

Skeletal muscle atrophy has been characterized as a state of uncontrolled inflammation and oxidative stress that escalates protein catabolism. Recent advancement supports impinging signaling molecules in the muscle fibers controlled through toll-like receptors (TLR). Activated TLR signaling pathways have been identified as inhibitors of muscle mass and provoke the settings for muscle atrophy. Among them, mainly TLR2 and TLR4 manifest their presence to exacerbate the release of the pro-inflammatory cytokine to deform the synchronized muscle programming. The present review enlightens the TLR signaling mediated muscle loss and the interplay between inflammation and skeletal muscle growth.

Keywords: Toll-like receptors, skeletal muscle atrophy, inflammation, oxidative stress, pro-inflammatory cytokines.
