Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an endotoxin derived from the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, mediates a local or systemic inflammatory response. Its action is carried out through stimulation of Tolllike receptor 4 (TLR4) activity and subsequently ...

Lipopolysaccharide antagonists
Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a potent and pleiotropic stimulus of immune cells. LPS has important clinical relevance because it has a direct role in the pathogenesis of Gram-negative bacterial infection. The lipid A moiety of LPS is responsible for the toxic effects of LPS.

Fetal skin as a pro-inflammatory organ: Evidence from a primate model of chorioamnionitis. [PDF]
BackgroundIntrauterine infection is a primary cause of preterm birth and fetal injury. The pro-inflammatory role of the fetal skin in the setting of intrauterine infection remains poorly characterized. Whether or not inflammation of the fetal skin occurs

Irisin Regulates the Functions of Hepatic Stellate Cells [PDF]
Background Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are known to play a fundamental role in the progression of liver fibrosis. Once HSCs are activated, they are involved in proliferation, migration, and contractility which are characteristics of liver fibrogenesis.

Early activation of peripheral monocytes with hallmarks of M1 and M2 monocytic cells in excessive alcohol drinkers: a pilot study [PDF]
Excessive drinking can lead to the development of immune dysfunction. Our aim is to investigate the effect of alcohol on immune activation from circulating peripheral blood monocytes in excessive drinkers (EDs).

Lipopolysaccharides in diazotrophic bacteria [PDF]
Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) is a process in which the atmospheric nitrogen (N2) is transformed into ammonia (NH3) by a select group of nitrogen-fixing organisms, or diazotrophic bacteria. In order to furnish the biologically useful nitrogen to plants, these bacteria must be in constant molecular communication with their host plants.
