Our findings revealed that DnaJ significantly induced TLR2 expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner, predominantly affecting TLR2 with minimal impact on other TLRs, such as TLR4 and TLR5, which detect bacterial PAMPs. The DnaJ-mediated TLR2 induction was driven by activation of the PI3K-SGK1 signaling pathway, with TLR10 playing a crucial role in facilitating these effects. This increase in TLR2 expression led to enhanced production of inflammatory cytokines in response to secondary Staphylococcus aureus infections, indicating a role in boosting host defense mechanisms.

In this narrative review, we summarize the existing evidence linking abnormal HERV expression to neurodevelopmental and psychosis-related disorders and discuss how these retroviral elements may contribute to the heterogeneity in clinical outcomes. We also review the findings suggesting that aberrant HERV expression contribute to late-onset cognitive disorders with neurodegenerative components, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other forms of dementia.

The recent establishment and use of animal models offer a complementary experimental platform that will help establish causal relationships and identify specific disease pathways affected by abnormal HERV expression. Yet, significant gaps persist in understanding the role of HERVs in neurodevelopmental, psychotic, and cognitive disorders, particularly concerning the specificity and stability of abnormal HERV expression in these conditions.
