Title: Investigating the Role of SR-A in the Modulation of TLR3- and TLR4-Dependent Cytokine Production
Developed under the guidance of Dr. Karen Guzman, Biology

Inflammation is a process that is regulated by the interaction of a variety of cells and signaling molecules. In this project, we examine the inflammatory response of mouse macrophages in culture, specifically, looking at how the different receptors involved in signaling cross-communicate with one another to regulate production of cytokines.
