TLR 4 also detects what?
TLR 4 also detects host cell fibrinogen, heparin, and hyaluronic acid
Pathogen-associated molecular patterns, RNA is detected by
Pathogen-associated molecular patterns
RNA is detected by TLR3, TLR7, and TLR8 in vesicles of APCs
Pathogen-associated molecular patterns, what is detected by TLR9 and where?
Pathogen-associated molecular patterns
Unmethylated CpG is detected by TLR9 in vesicles of APCs
Pathogen-associated molecular patterns, what detects various bacterial products on APC surfaces?
Pathogen-associated molecular patterns
