Innate immunity relies on a set of germline-encoded receptors including Toll-like receptors (TLRs) that enable the host to discriminate between self and non-self. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Infections are thought to play an important role in disease susceptibility. The role of innate immunity in MS has been recently appreciated. TLR2, a member of the TLR family, forms heterodimers with either TLR1 or TLR6 and detects a wide range of microbial as well as self-derived molecular structures. It may thus be important both in fighting infection and in activating autoimmunity. In this review, we discuss innate regulation of autoimmunity in MS with a focus on the role of TLR2 signaling.
