Abstract Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9), primarily expressed in human dendritic and B cells, recognizes double-stranded DNA motifs from pathogens, initiating an inflammatory response. Recent studies have revealed TLR9's involvement beyond its conventional role in immune response, notably during the tumorigenesis of various cancers such as head and neck, cervical, and ovarian cancers.
The liver is the largest gland in the human body and functions as an innate immune organ. Liver macrophages called Kupffer cells (KC) constitute the largest group of macrophages in the human body. Innate immune responses involving KC represent the first line of defense against pathogens in the liver.
