When faced with an infection, mesothelial cells express specific surface markers that enable them to promote the migration of neutrophils, to interact with extracellular matrix proteins, to present antigens to immune cells, and to produce biologically important molecules such as proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and nitric oxide (NO) [6, 7] Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are type I transmembrane proteins and comprise an ectodomain, which contains leucine-rich repeats that mediate the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs); a transmembrane region; and a cytosolic Toll/ IL-1 receptor (TIR) domain that activates downstream signaling pathways [8] . ./cache/cord-296258-8pc2p3az.txt ./txt/cord-296258-8pc2p3az.txt
