Association between TLR2 + 2477G/A polymorphism and bacterial meningitis: a meta-analysis.

Epidemiology and infection - 1 Apr 2018

Jin Xiaochun, Yin Shuzhou, Zhang Youtao, Chen Xu

Abstract excerpt

Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is a key member of TLRs, which is crucial in the initial inflammatory response against bacteria. TLR2, is also the initial barrier against bacterial infection and plays an important role in recognising a variety of bacterial lipoproteins. Several studies have been performed to investigate the TLR2 + 2477G/A polymorphism and bacterial meningitis susceptibility. Unfortunately, the...
