How Immune Cells ’Sniff Out’ Pathogens
Researchers from the University of Bonn are using an innovative method to watch immune receptors go about their business. Immune cells are capable of detecting infections just like a sniffer dog, using special sensors known as Toll-like receptors, or TLRs for short. But what signals activate TLRs, and what is the relationship between the scale and nature of this activation and the substance being detected? In a recent study, researchers from the University of Bonn and the University Hospital Bonn (UKB) used an innovative method to answer these questions.
