Impact of asthma, environmental exposures and ethnicity on functional responsiveness to Toll-like receptor (TLR) stimulation in children
TLRs play a key role in initiating innate immunity and in regulating the nature of the adaptive immune response. We hypothesized that functional responsiveness to TLR stimulation differs in clinically; environmentally; ethnically distinct pediatric populations. PBMC obtained from 272 children were...
