Exploring the Contribution of TLR7 to Sex-Based Disparities in Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)-Induced Inflammation and Immunity
TLR7 plays a key role in recognizing viral RNA to initiate an immune response. Sex-based differences in the severity of RSV respiratory infections have been noted, and this may be related to higher expression of X-linked toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) in female immune cells. Indeed, TLR7 has been shown...
