Abstract
Infection by microbial organisms results in an activation of the immune system. The toll-like receptor (TLR) performs a decisive role in the initiation of innate immune responses by recognizing the pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) and delivering the signals that are critical for the generation of adaptive immune responses. The success of organ transplantation relies on a complete blockage of immune responses. Since T cells are considered major effector cells during organ transplantation, many studies on transplantation immunology have been focused on adaptive immune responses. However, activation of T cells requires signals generated by innate immune responses. Therefore, a thorough understanding of innate immune responses is critical. Moreover, it has been reported recently that CD4+ T helper cells can be activated by the result of innate immune responses in the absence of an MHC class II antigen’.
