Abstract excerpt
Dendritic cells (DCs) express multiple Toll-like receptors (TLR) in distinct cellular locations. Herpes simplex viruses (HSV) have been reported to engage both the surface TLR2 and intracellular TLR9 in conventional DCs. However, the contributions of these TLRs in recognition of HSV and the induction of proinflammatory cytokines in DCs remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that a rare population of HSV, both in...
