A TLR2 Agonist in German Cockroach Frass Activates MMP-9 Release and Is Protective against Allergic Inflammation in Mice

The role of TLR2 in modulating experimentally induced asthma is not fully understood. We recently identified that German cockroach (GC) frass contains a TLR2 ligand allowing us to investigate the role of a TLR2 agonist in a complex real world allergen in mediating allergic airway inflammation. GC fr...
