Activation of upper respiratory tract mucosal innate immune responses in cats with a novel complex

Nonspecific induction of local innate immune responses by mucosally administered immunotherapy is a new approach to protection from upper respiratory tract infections.. A new study investigated a new liposome-toll-like receptor complex and its ability to activate innate immune responses in cats.

The results of the study indicated that Liposome-TLR complexes were found to effectively activate innate immune responses in cats after mucosal administration. These findings suggest that this compound could be used for nonspecific protection from viral and bacterial respiratory tract infections.
