The stimulation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces the release of critical proinflammatory cytokines that are necessary to activate potent immune responses. LPS/TLR4 signaling has been intensively studied in the past few years.

2025年3月18日 · The LPS-TLR4 immune response is a critical mechanism in the body's defense against Gram-negative bacterial infections, yet its dysregulation can lead to severe inflammatory diseases. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a pivotal pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) on the surface of gram-negative bacteria, is recognized by Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), initiating a …

In this review, we focus on the mechanisms of the internalization and intracellular trafficking of TLR4 and CD14, and also of LPS, in immune cells and discuss how dysregulation of the endo-lysosomal compartment contributes to the development of diverse human diseases.

2013年12月6日 · Overview of LPS recognition by TLR4–MD-2. LPS binding induces dimerization of the TLR4–MD-2 complex, which is proposed to enable dimerization of the intracellular TIR domains and...

In response to bacterial infection, the TLR4/MD-2 complex that is expressed on the surface of macrophages, monocytes, dendritic, and epithelial cells senses picomolar concentrations of endotoxic LPS and triggers the production of various pro-inflammatory mediators.

2009年3月1日 · Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 and myeloid differentiation factor 2 (MD-2) form a heterodimer that recognizes a common ‘pattern’ in structurally diverse LPS molecules. To understand the...

To identify proteins that specifically regulate the LPS-induced endocytosis of TLR4, we used a highly sensitive assay to detect endogenous TLR4 by flow cytometry.

2008年5月1日 · The stimulation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces the release of critical proinflammatory cytokines that are necessary to activate potent immune responses. LPS/TLR4 signaling has been intensively studied in the past few years.

2005年1月1日 · One such receptor–ligand complex is formed between the mammalian Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)–MD2–CD14 complex and bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Recent research indicates that there is...

1999年4月16日 · TLR4 is a member of the recently identified Toll-like receptor family of proteins and has been putatively identified as Lps, the gene necessary for potent responses to lipopolysaccharide in mammals.
