TL;DR: It is suggested that although several TLR can upregulate NF-kappaB in HIV-1-infected cells, upregulation of NF-KappaB alone is insufficient to activate the viral LTR, and the possibility that TLR4 signaling pathways may be altered during chronic HIV- 1 infection is raised.

TL;DR: Results demonstrate that tissue distribution of TLRs is associated with the immunological role of a particular tissue, that lymphocytes may also express these 'innate immune' receptors, and that FIV infection can alter TLR expression. (via Semantic Scholar)
