Summary of putative DAMP/TLR interactions in SS.

DAMPTLRRefs

(i) Biglycan and decorin are degraded by saliva from NOD.B10 mice
(ii) Versican is increased in SGEC lines from SS patients
TLR2 and TLR4
TLR2/6 heterodimer
[95]
[108]
(i) Fibronectin is dysregulated in salivary tissue from SS mice and upregulated in saliva from SS patients
(ii) Calprotectin (S100A8/A9) levels are elevated in sera, salivary tissue, and saliva of pSS patients
(iii) MUC5B and MUC7 are mislocalized in the ECM of pSS patients
