Expression and Function of Toll-Like Receptors in Human Basophils
1 Jan 2006
Abstract excerpt
We investigated the expression and function of a panel of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) in human basophils. Basophil preparations constitutively expressed TLR2, TLR4, TLR9 and TLR10 mRNAs (TLR4 > TLR2 >> TLR9, TLR10). Although TLR mRNA expression in basophils was generally less prominent compared with those in neutrophils and monocytes, basophils expressed significantly higher levels of TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA than...
