Suppression of the TRIF-dependent signaling pathway of toll-like receptors by 4-oxo-4-(2-oxo-oxazolidin-3-yl)-but-2-enoic acid ethyl ester
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize molecular structures derived from microbes and initiate innate immunity. The stimulation of TLRs by microbial components triggers the activation of the myeloid differential...
