From: Human herpesvirus 6 infection impairs Toll-like receptor signaling
Downregulation of cytokine production by stimulation with TLR ligand in DCs after infection with HHV-6. The production of cytokines by HHV-6-infetced DCs and mock-infected DCs was examined as detailed in the text. The amounts of cytokines produced by HHV-6-infected DCs after stimulation with the TLR3 ligand poly(I:C), the TLR4 ligand LPS, and the TLR7 ligand imidazoquinoline are all lower than those produced by mock-infected DCs that were stimulated with TLR ligands.
