INDUCTION OF APOPTOSIS IN TOLL-LIKE RECEPTOR EXPRESSING TUMOR CELLS
摘要
<p>Some types of cancer cells express one or more Toll-like receptors (TLRs). These TLRs are therapeutic targets. The invention relates to methods for treating Toll-like receptor expressing cancers and tumor cells by selecting a TLR expressing tumor cell and contacting the cell with a therapeutically effective amount of a TLR ligand. The invention particularly relates to methods for treating TLR3 expressing cancers and tumor cells using TLR3 agonists.</p>
