Lipid A is a component of the lipopolysaccharide cell wall present on bacteria and is recognized by TLR4 (Toll-like receptor 4). Its detection elicits a pro-inflammatory response...

... molecules occur singly or in clusters. We have obtained preliminary data for co-localization of lipopolysaccharide and CD14 on intact cells. We also show that HLA-DR (human leukocyte antigen-DR) and CD74 are partially co-localized and that interaction between these molecules involves the peptide-binding...

...J. Weiss Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) and bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI) are closely related endotoxin-binding proteins that function in a co-ordinated manner to facilitate an integrated host response to invading Gram-negative bacteria. Differences in the structure...

... of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding proteins in NLF. Five proteins were found to adsorb to a LPS-coated surface; two of these proteins correspond to the two PLUNC forms, as judged by 2-DE pattern matching. For comparison, human saliva was found to contain a set of LPS-binding proteins with similar 2-DE spot positions...

Although various microbial cell-wall components are recognized by different receptors, all of these responses are abrogated in MyD88-deficient cells...
