Our new paper in @ScienceAdvances shows that TLR7, a viral RNA sensor, amplifies influenza-mediated vascular inflammation and dysfunction in pregnancy, leading to adverse maternal and foetal outcomes. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Removing TLR7 reduced these sex-based differences, suggesting TLR7 may shape how males and females fight RSV.

It drives harmful lung inflammation and dysfunction early on but helps to control Th2-mediated chronic airway hyperreactivity. #Influenza #Immunology #TLR7
