Regulatory Mechanism of Expression of LPS Binding Site(S) and Signaling Events by LPS in Macrophages

  • Chapter
Endotoxin

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 256))

Abstract

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from gram-negative microorganisms is a potent activator of macrophages. LPS induces macrophages to secrete immunoregulatory substances including interleukin 1 (IL 1), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interferon, colony stimulating factors (CSFs) and, prostaglandins. Furthermore LPS activates tumor cytotoxicity of macrophages by itself or in combination with interferon.
