Abstract
Cervical cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths for women globally. Despite notable advancements in prevention and treatment, the identification of novel therapeutic targets remains crucial for cervical cancer. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play an essential role in innate immunity as pattern-recognition receptors. There are several types of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), including those present in cervical cancer cells, which have the ability to activate toll-like receptors (TLRs). Recent studies have revealed dysregulated toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling pathways in cervical cancer, leading to the production of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines that can facilitate tumor growth and metastasis. Consequently, TLRs hold significant promise as potential targets for innovative therapeutic agents against cervical cancer. This book chapter explores the role of TLR signaling pathways in cervical cancer, highlighting their potential for targeted therapy while addressing challenges such as tumor heterogeneity and off-target effects. Despite these obstacles, targeting TLR signaling pathways presents a promising approach for the development of novel and effective treatments for cervical cancer.
