Higher strength of expression of type 9 TLRs in the lymphocytic infiltrate in skin biopsies of CLE patients is associated with a better response to hydroxychloroquine treatment, as measured by a percentage reduction in CLASI index. Higher type 9 TLR expression in the epidermis and a higher percentage of lymphocytes with positive type 9 TLR expression in the dermis are associated with a lower dose of hydroxychloroquine necessary for clinical remission."]
