The Role of Toll-Like Receptors in Autoimmune Diseases through Failure of the Self-Recognition Mechanism by Mark Farrugia, Byron Baron

“…Toll-like receptors (TLRs), part of the innate immune system that recognises molecular signatures, are important in the recognition of pathogenic components. However, when specific cellular contexts develop in which TLRs are inappropriately activated by self-components, this may lead to sterile inflammation and result in the occurrence of autoimmunity. …”
