Protective Role of Toll-like Receptor 4 in Experimental Gonococcal Infection of Female Mice
Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a common bacterial sexually transmitted infection. Like all Gram-negative bacteria, the outer membrane of the gonococcus is rich in endotoxin, a known ligand for Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4. However, the role of endotoxin and its cognate receptor TLR4 in the mucosal response...
