Microbial patterns signaling via Toll-like receptors 2 and 5 contribute to epithelial repair, growth and survival.
Epithelial cells (ECs) continuously interact with microorganisms and detect their presence via different pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) including Toll-like receptors (TLRs). Ligation of epithelial TLRs by pathogens is usually associated with the induction of pro-inflammatory mediators and anti...
