Previous studies have demonstrated that single immunoglobulin IL-1R-related receptor/Toll IL-1 receptor 8 (SIGIRR/TIR8) is a member of the toll-interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) family that can negatively modulate TLR4 mediated signaling, but its role in the innate immunity of urinary tract infection remains incompletely defined. Here, SIGIRR is linked to urinary tract infection.
