This study examined the expression of TLR 2, 4 and 6 as transcript and protein in the placenta (chorioallantois) of 14 foals born alive. By PCR, all examined placental samples contained TLR 2, 4 and 6 transcripts. Using immunohistochemistry, trophoblasts and allantoic epithelium were immunopositive for TLR 2, 4 and 6 in all placental samples. The majority of placental samples contained TLR 4 and 6 positive stromal cells and vascular smooth muscle cells. Since these results confirm the expression of TLR 2, 4 and 6 in different cell populations of the equine placenta, they are the basis for studies into the pathogenesis of TLR-associated placental diseases in mares.
