RNA-seq analysis of a zebrafish <i>tlr2</i> mutant shows a broad function of this Toll-like receptor in transcriptional and metabolic control and defense to <i>Mycobacterium marinum</i> infection

2019-08-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The function of Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) in host defense against pathogens, especially Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is poorly understood. To investigate the role of TLR2 during mycobacterial infection, we analyzed the response of tlr2 zebrafish mutant larvae to infection with Mycobacterium marinum (Mm), a close relative to Mtb, as a model for tuberculosis. We measured infection burde...
