    Evidence: In Tlr4(WT) mice, subacute and chronic CS exposure induced a substantial pulmonary infiltration of macrophages, neutrophils, lymphocytes and dendritic cells (DCs), that was absent in air-exposed mice. n contrast, after subacute CS exposure, Tlr4(defective) mice showed a limited (5-fold lower) increase of DCs, neutrophils and lymphocytes in BAL fluid, lower costimulatory marker expression on DCs and lower MCP-1 and TNF-alpha levels in BAL fluid compared to Tlr4(WT) animals.

Levy et al., J Immunol 2006 : The adenosine system selectively inhibits TLR mediated TNF-alpha production in the human newborn ...
