Prokaryotic RNA Associated to Bacterial Viability Induces Polymorphonuclear Neutrophil Activation

Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) are the first cellular line of antibacterial host defense. They sense pathogens through recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by innate pattern recognition receptors, such as Toll-like receptors (TLR). The aim of this study was to investiga...
