LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDE RECOGNITION, CD14, AND LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDE RECEPTORS
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1999The ability of a host to sense invasion by a pathogenic organism, and to respond appropriately to control infection, is paramount to survival. To that end, an array of receptors and binding proteins has evolved as part of the innate immune system to detect Gram-negative bacteria.

Lipopolysaccharides of Rhizobium
Archives of Microbiology, 1980Hot phenol-water extractions were carried out of cells from 12 strains of the fast-growing rhizobia Rhizobium leguminosarum, Rhizobium phaseoli, Rhizobium trifolii and Rhizobium meliloti. Purified lipopolysaccharide preparations contain neutral sugars, hexosamines, 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonate and uronic acids.

Lipopolysaccharides ofShigella sonnei [PDF]
Immunobiological properties of native lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from virulent and avirulent strains of Shigella sonnei bacteria (LPS-V and LPS-A, respectively) were studied. In avirulent bacteria, LPS-V induced immunosuppressive activity specific of the virulent strain. LPS of the avirulent strain, whereas LPS-A lacked this property.

PATHOBIOLOGY OF LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDE
Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, 1997Lipopolysaccharide is a component of the gram-negative bacterial cell wall that is responsible for 25,000-50,000 deaths in the United States each year. The sequelae of gram-negative infection and septicemia leading to death include fever, hypotension with inadequate tissue perfusion, and disseminated intravascular coagulation.

A Lipopolysaccharide Antigen of the Treponema
Nature, 1958IMMUNOCHEMICAL studies carried out by D'Alessandro et al. 1 on a non-pathogenic, culturable treponeme, the so-called Reiter treponeme, revealed the presence of four antigenic components: (1) a thermolabile protein; (2) a specific, thermostable antigen with polysaccharide characteristics; (3) a lipoid, corresponding to the ubiquitous lipidic antigen ...

Antibodies to lipopolysaccharide
Journal of Immunological Methods, 1995Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are indispensable structural components of the Gram-negative bacterial outer membrane and are major determinants of virulence in pathogenic species. In the infected host LPS is better known as endotoxin where it acts as a potent stimulator of the inflammatory response.

Structure of bacterial lipopolysaccharides
Carbohydrate Research, 2003Bacterial lipopolysaccharides are the major components of the outer surface of Gram-negative bacteria They are often of interest in medicine for their immunomodulatory properties. In small amounts they can be beneficial, but in larger amounts they may cause endotoxic shock.

Biodegradation of microbial lipopolysaccharides [PDF]
La biodegradation parBacillus macerans des lipopolysaccharides (LPS), extraites deSalmonella typhimurium, Salmonella minnesota et Escherichia coli fut etudiee dans un milieu liquide mineral, contenant uniquement ces LPS comme sources de carbone. II fut observe qu'apres avoir effectue une hydrolyse des LPS le microorganisme se developpe sur les acides ...

Characterization of Legionella Lipopolysaccharide
2012The lipopolysaccharide(LPS) of Legionella spp. is an immuno-dominant antigen and the basis for Legionella pneumophila serogroup classification. The LPS shows a peculiar structure composed of a very hydrophobic lipid A acylated by long chain fatty acids and an O-antigen-specific chain consisting of homopolymeric legionaminic acid.
