Summary

Introduction: Recently it has involved the role of TLR (toll-like receptors) in the pathogenesis of asthma. TLRs are a family of proteins responsible for the recognition of Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patters (PAMPs). The possible role that TLRs play in IgE-dependent asthma (not eosinophilic) and its recognition as a new endotype asthma, could open new therapeutic expectations.

Objective: To analyze the expression of TLR 2 and 4 in monocytes/ macrophages and neutrophils in peripheral blood and induced sputum from asthmatic patients
