Multiple Roles of Toll-Like Receptor 4 in Colorectal Cancer
15 Jul 2014
Abstract excerpt
Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling has been implicated in the inflammatory responses in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). Such inflammatory signals mediate complex interactions between commensal bacteria and TLRs and are required for IEC proliferation, immune response, repair, and homeostasis.
