Cells Stimulated with More Than One Toll-Like Receptor-Ligand in the Presence of a MyD88 Inhibitor Augmented Interferon-

Host exposure to pathogens engage multiple pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs) including toll-like receptors (TLRs); recruit intracellular signaling adaptor proteins primarily myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 (MyD88) for activating downstream signaling cascades, which culminate in the production of type I interferons (IFNs), proinflammatory cytokines, and chemokines; and impede pathogen replication and dissemination. However, recent studies highlight that absence of MyD88 increased antiviral type I IFN induction, and MyD88
