Immunohistochemical TLR2, TLR4, TLR5, and TLR7 positivity and the density of CD3- and CD8-positive cells in tumoral and stromal tissue were evaluated from the tissue microarray slides of 549 consecutive CRC surgical patients treated at Helsinki University Hospital, Finland, between 1998 and 2005. Here, TLR2 is linked to colorectal carcinoma.
