abstract = {The family of Toll-like receptors plays an essential role in the induction of the immune response. These receptors sense the presence of microbial ligands and activate the nuclear factor-κB transcription factor. We review the key studies that led from the formulation of the concept of pattern recognition receptors to the characterization of Toll-like receptors, insisting on the important role played by the model organism Drosophila melanogaster and on the increasing evidence connecting these receptors to cardiovascular disease.},
