Toll-Like Receptors (TLRs) and Innate Immunity (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Bauer, Stefan; Hartmann, Gunther

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Overall recent research on TLRs has led to tremendous increase in our understanding of early steps in pathogen recognition and will presumably lead to potent TLR targeting therapeutics in the future. This book reviews and highlights our recent understanding on the function and ligands of TLRs as well as their role in autoimmunity, dendritic cell activation and target structures for therapeutic intervention.
