Mouse primary microglia respond differently to LPS and poly(I:C) in vitro
Abstract Microglia, CNS resident innate immune cells, respond strongly to activation of TLR3 and TLR4, which recognize viral dsRNA poly(I:C) and bacterial endotoxin LPS, respectively. However, few studies have thoroughly and parallelly compared functional phenotypes and downstream mechanisms between...
