hypothesized that TLR4 and TLR8 heterodimer formation regulates MTB immune responses.[103]TLR7 has been suggested to provide MTB host cell immunity.[93, 105, 106]TLR9 is a pattern recognition receptor that facilitates MTB recognition and controls MTB‐specific T‐cell responses.[112] We suggest that polymorphisms that affect the function of these genes will influence the TB outcome.[103]. Here, TLR8 is linked to tuberculosis.
