Abstract: Objective: To study the effect of TLRs and NLRs on the maturation of dendritic cells. Methods: The DC2.4 cells were stimulated with a single ultrapure TLR/NLR ligand or a combination of two ligands. After 24 hours, the flow cytometry was used to test the expression of CD40, CD83, CD86, CD80, and MHC-Ⅱon the surface of DCs. Results: A single TLR or NLR ligand could promote the expression of DCs surface markers, and the combined stimulation of two ligands could enhance the expression of the above markers. Conclusion: TLRs and NLRs can synergistically promote the maturation of DCs.
