Carvalho, Agostinho; Osório, Nuno S.; Saraiva, Margarida; Cunha, Cristina; Almeida, A. J.; Coelho, Maria Teixeira; Ludovico, Paula; Pedrosa, JorgeIn humans, allelic variants in Toll-like receptors (TLRs) associate with several pathologies. However, the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms of this association remain largely unknown. Analysis of the human TLR9 promoter revealed that the C allele of the rs5743836 polymorphism generates several regulatory sites, including an IL-6-responding element. Here, we show that, in mononuclear cells carrying t...
