Abstract
cancer. TLR5 and TLR7 expression was previously shown to differ depending on HPV - status and correlate with outcome in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.\n tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) counts, the latter being a well-documented prognostic marker.\n) were analyzed by immunohistochemistry for TLR5 and TLR7, and correlated with the above parameters.\n TIL counts (p = .023).\n TIL counts, and TLR5 expression was disclosed, but not with TLR7. Therefore, it could be useful to investigate TLR7 further as a potential independent prognostic marker.\nBACKGROUND\nAIMS/OBJECTIVES\nMATERIALS AND METHODS\nRESULTS\nCONCLUSION AND SIGNIFICANCE
