Cracking the Toll-like receptor code in fungal infections.

Expert review of anti-infective therapy - 1 Oct 2010

Cunha Cristina, Romani Luigina, Carvalho Agostinho

Abstract excerpt

Innate control of fungal infection requires the specific recognition of invariant fungal molecular structures by a variety of innate immune receptors, including Toll-like receptors. In addition to the role in inducing protective immune responses, Toll-like receptor engagement may paradoxically favor fungal infections, by inducing inflammatory pathology and impairing antifungal immunity. Although the dissection of...
