## Abstract ## Objective Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are pattern‐associated receptors in innate immunity that may be involved in the recognition of self antigens and the production of pathogenic autoantibodies. This study was undertaken to examine the expression and function of various TLRs in subp
## Abstract Dendritic cells utilize various sets of Toll‐like receptors (TLR) or cytosolic sensors to detect pathogens and evoke immune responses. In patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, a higher prevalence of various infectious diseases is reported; suggesting that innate immunity agai
