Physiologically, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is present in the bloodstream and can be bound to several proteins for its transport (i.e.) LPS binding protein (LBP) and plasma lipoproteins). LPS receptors CD14 and TLR-4 are constitutively expressed in the Central Nervous System (CNS). To our knowle...
Membrane Transport Structure Function and Biogenesis: Lipopolysaccharide, a key molecule involved in the synergism between temporinsin inhibiting bacterial... Epand, Y. Shai, Lipopolysaccharide, a key molecule involved in the synergism between temporinsin inhibiting bacterial growth and in endotoxin ...
(MCP) antibiotics with potent antibacterial activity against CRAB. The mechanism of action of this molecule class involves blocking the transport of bacterial lipopolysaccharide from the inner membrane to its destination on the outer membrane, through inhibition of the LptB2FGC complex. A clinical ...
Kageyama Y, Nishizaki Y, Aida K, Yayama K, Ebisui T, Akiyama T, Nakamura T.Lactobacillusplantaruminduces innate cytokine responses that potentially provide a protective benefit against COVID-19: a single-arm, double-blind, prospective trial combined with an in vitro cytokine response assay. Exp...
Functional prediction of the anti-lipopolysaccharide factor from P. pelagicus, Pp-ALF revealed that it could be a potent molecule with respect to antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer activity. The prokaryotic expression system E. coli was not found suitable for the recombinant expression of...

LPS lipopolysaccharide NGS next generation sequencing NLR nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor NLRP nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor containing pyrin domain The inflammasome is a multiprotein complex which canonically consists of a sensor, the adapter molecule apoptosis-as...
Fig. 4. Effect of HYCOs on the production of inflammatory cytokines in THP1 cells challenged with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). THP1 cells were incubated with LPS (1 μg/ml) in the presence of DMSO (CON), HYCO-3, HYCO-6, HYCO-7, HYCO-13, dimethyl fumarate (DMF), CORM-401 (CORM)...
multiplying by 100. For DC migration in 3D collagen matrices, chemotaxis assays were performed using a Zigmond chamber as described elsewhere25. Briefly, lipopolysaccharide (200 ng/ml)-treated BMDCs were suspended in 2 mg/ml type I collagen (BD Biosciences) containing 5% FCS and placed on ...
On one side, the dimer accommodates a lipid molecule at the interface between TM helices 1 and 5 from opposing Wzm subunits, right above the O antigen-binding CBD1-a (Supplementary Fig. 4d). This cytosolic portal is closed on the opposing side, suggesting that cap recognition and substrate...
