Expression of TLRs in each group. (a-f) mRNA expressions of TLR1, TLR2, TLR3, TLR4, TLR5 and TLR7 in the tonsils were determined by qRT-PCR. Data were expressed as mean ± SEM. n = 20 in control group; n = 10 in TH group; n = 15 in TH + RI group. *P < 0.05 compared to the control group; **P < 0.01 compared to the control group; ***P < 0.001 compared to the control group; #P < 0.05 compared to the TH group; ###P < 0.001 compared to the TH group; ns (no significance) compared to the control group or TH group
