Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play an important role in the innate immune response to pathogens. TLR8 has been found to recognize RNA derived from various viruses, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Presently, very little is known about the influence of TLR8 genetic variation on susceptibility to and progression of HIV disease.
