Abstract:
Toll-like receptor( TLR )is a newly discovered important innate immune receptor and signal transduction transmembrane receptor.By the TLR in the surface of immune cells,body can recognize conserved pathogen-associated molecular patterns,to stimulate the production of cytokine,increased costimulatory molecule expression of antigen-presenting cell,activating T cells,establishing a closely-linked bridge between the innate immunity and acquired immunity.TLR9 is a member of Toll-like receptor family,mainly identify viral or bacterial DNA containing unmethylated CpG dinucleotides.Studies have showed that TLR9 is in the immune system's recognition of EB virus,and it plays an important role in the infection and transformation of the EB virus.This paper reviews the studies of the interaction of TLR9 with EB virus.
