Recognition of fungal pathogens by Toll-like receptors

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have been identified as a major class of pattern-recognition
receptors. Recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by TLRs, either
alone or in heterodimerization with other TLR or non-TLR receptors, induces signals
responsible for the activation of innate immune response. Recent studies have
demonstrated a crucial involvement of TLRs in the recognition of fungal pathogens such as
Candida albicans, Aspergillus fumigatus and Cryptococcus neoformans. By studying fungal …
