Methods and composition are provided for modulating innate immunity by modulating activation of the TRAIL receptor. Signaling through the TRAIL-R inhibits the responsiveness of cells including dendritic cells, macrophages, and the like. The activity of these cells is increased or decreased by the administration of agents that inhibit or activate TRAIL-R signaling. Innate immunity includes the production of cytokines that act on the immune system.
