Systemic activation of TLR3-dependent TRIF signaling confers host defense against Gram-negative bacteria in the intestine

Recognition of Gram-negative bacteria by toll-like receptor (TLR)4 induces MyD88 and TRIF mediated responses. We have shown that TRIF-dependent responses play an important role in intestinal defense against Gram-negative enteropathogens. In the current study, we examined underlying mechanisms of how...
