Write T if the statement is correct; write F if the statement is not correct. Bacterial LPS is recognized by TLR3. " " TLRs act as an alarm system to alert both the innate and adaptive immune systems that an infection is brewing. " " Cytokines released by activated macrophages increase permeability of blood vessels. " " Acute phase proteins are produced by activated macrophages. " " TNF-alpha may be released systemically. "
