Polymorphisms in Toll-like receptor genes and susceptibility to infections in allogeneic stem cell transplantation

Objective Discovery of genetic variations in the genes encoding for Toll-like receptors (TLRs) has highlighted a potential link between genomic variation of the host and susceptibility to infections. Materials and Methods We investigated the association between polymorphisms in the TLR2, TLR4, and T...
