[Innate immunity, receptors for exogenous and endogenous danger patterns in immunopathogenesis of atherosclerosis--part II: TLR receptors, significance of genetic polymorphism of danger signals receptors].

Abstract excerpt

The most important set of receptors for danger patterns are TLR receptors. Together ten different TLR receptors were identified so far. Majority of TLR receptors is expressed on the cell surface to identify extracellulary localized danger signals. Some TLR receptors are also expressed in the intracellular compartment to identify intracellular danger signals. Receptors for danger signals display individual...
