Abstract:BackgroundHuman innate immune responses are triggered through the interaction of human pattern recognition receptors and pathogen-associated molecular patterns. The role of toll-like receptor2 (TLR2) in mice innate immune response to leptospirosis is well established, while human studies are limited. The present study aimed to determine the TLR2 response among confirmed cases of leptospirosis.Methodology/Principle findingsThe study has two components. Clinically suspected patients of leptospirosis were confirm… Show more
