A closer inspection of individual gene expressions revealed that genes implicated in the inflammatory response, CXCR4, TLR7, CCRL2, CEBPB, and P2RX7, were induced in THP-1 macrophages in response to infection with both WT and Cgyps1–11Δ cells, which is reflective of a common transcriptional response of THP-1 cells to C. glabrata infection. This evidence concerns the gene TLR7 and infection.
