Background Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is responsible for the most common
intrauterine infections, which may be acquired congenitally from infected pregnant woman to …

Background Some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), located in Toll-like receptor
(TLR) genes, were reported to be associated with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) …

Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) recognizes non-methylated viral CpG-containing DNA and serves
as a pattern recognition receptor that signals the presence of human cytomegalovirus …

Intracellular Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) recognizes viral double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and
activates antiviral immune responses through the production of type I interferons (IFNs) and …

Background Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common cause of congenital virus infection.
However, the risk factors for infection in utero and for progression to a severe clinical …

Background Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the most common cause of intrauterine
infections worldwide. The toll-like receptors (TLRs) have been reported as important factors …

Objectives The association among specific single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in
TLR2 (Arg677Trp, Arg753Gln) and TLR4 (Asp299Gln) and human cytomegalovirus (CMV) …

The study was aimed to estimate the role and prevalence rates of genotypes, haplotypes,
and alleles, located within the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of interleukin (IL) …

Congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection is the most common intrauterine infection. A
non-specific immune response is the first line of host defense mechanism against human …

Background Congenital Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a very common intrauterine infection
which can cause severe developmental disabilities. Transmission of the virus to the fetus …
