A conserved Toll-like receptor is required for Caenorhabditis elegans innate immunity.

EMBO reports - 1 Jan 2008

Tenor Jennifer L, Aballay Alejandro

Abstract excerpt

Pathogen recognition through Toll-like receptors (TLRs) is crucial in order to mount an appropriate immune response against microorganisms. On the basis of a lack of evidence indicating that Caenorhabditis elegans uses TLRs to elicit an immune response and on the absence of genes encoding Rel-like transcription factors in its genome, it is believed that TLR-mediated immunity arose after coelomates split from...
