dc.description.abstract	The biggest infectious disease outbreaks have been respiratory diseases, which are a leading cause to death and disability in humans. Though the use of antibiotics has helped greatly, challenges occur due to the evolution of anti-microbial resistance. Fortunately, the body has an innate immune system that is the primary response when an infection invades the lungs. Toll-like receptors are important for this primary response. They recognize pathogens and initiate a cascade of events to activate an inflammatory response. Toll-like receptor 10, also known as TLR10, has a unique anti-inflammatory function. This is different compared to the other TLRs, since they have pro-inflammatory properties. TLR10 is the latest TLR to be discovered, therefore little data can be found on its expression and very little is known about its function.	en_US
