Ex vivo Stimulatory Capacity of TLR3 and TLR4 is reduced in HIV-Infected Rapid Progressors and Enhanced Long-Term Non-Progressors

Ex vivo Stimulatory Capacity of TLR3 and TLR4 is reduced in HIV-Infected Rapid Progressors and Enhanced Long-Term Non-Progressors

Background: Toll-like receptors (TLRs) may be important in the ability of host innate immunity to control HIV infection. To investigate TLR activity in association with HIV disease, we examined the compared the ex vivo stimulatory capacity of TLRs in patients with chronic, asymptomatic HIV infection...
