Description
The TLR family is essential for pathogen recognition and the activation of innate immunity. Toll-like receptor 9, a member of this family, plays a crucial role in the immune system. It is expressed in various immune cells, such as dendritic cells, macrophages, natural killer cells, and other antigen-presenting cells. In rabbits, the TLR9 gene encodes this important receptor. In rabbits, activation of TLR9 induces the production of Th1-type proinflammatory cytokines, interferons, and chemokines. TLR9 activation shows potential in the treatment of certain diseases
