Symptoms and signs of neurocysticercosis (NCC) are nonspecific and depend upon several factors, including the host immune response to the parasite. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play an important role in innate immunity. Susceptibility of humans to NCC in relation to TLR polymorphism is unknown. The present study examines TLR4 polymorphism in human NCC and its role in symptomatic disease.
