Major question:
•Recognition of microbes by dendritic cells (via TLRs) is essential to activate the adaptive response
•Viruses can be strictly intracellular and usually don’t infect DCs
•So, how do DCs present viral Ag??

Hypotheses:
![Page 3: Major question: Recognition of microbes by dendritic cells (via TLRs) is essential to activate the adaptive response Viruses can be strictly intracellular](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649d205503460f949f4911/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Hypotheses:
•Cells other than DCs (stromal cells) contribute to presentation of Ag
•TLRs of stromal cells recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs)

Experimental system:
•Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2)
•Thymidine kinase (TK) mutant can infect but not replicate
• Infect vaginal epithelium of mice
•Examine response to mucosal infection
•Primarily measure activation of CD4+ TH1
