## Abstract ## Objective Autoantibodies constitute the hallmark of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodyβassociated vasculitis (AAV); however, CD4+ T cells play an essential role in the development of autoimmunity. Infection is associated with vasculitis, with Tollβlike receptors (TLRs) a potential
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) act as innate immune signal sensors and play central roles in host defense. Myeloid differentiation factor (MyD) 88 is a common adaptor molecule required for signaling mediated by TLRs. When the receptors are activated, cells bearing TLRs produce various proinflammatory cy
Nucleic acid structures are highly conserved through evolution and when self nucleic acids are aberrantly detected by toll-like receptors (TLRs) they contribute to autoimmune disease. For this reason, multiple regulatory mechanisms exist to prevent immune responses to self nucleic acids. TLR9 is a n
