Title
The transition from normal lung anatomy to minimal and established fibrosis in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF)
Year
2021
Function
"In our IPF samples, TLRs that could recognize both bacteria (TLR4 and TLR6) and viruses (TLR7 and TLR8) were significantly up-regulated. Of the remainder of the TLRs, only TLR2 was down-regulated, and almost all other TLRs were up-regulated."
