Abstract:
[Abstract ] Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) is a key member of the Toll like receptor family , and is a major receptor for lipopo-lysaccharide ( LPS) .After stimulating with LPS , TLR4 activation could cause the release of a series of inflammatory factors , and acti-vate the immune response of the organism .In recent years , LPS/TLR4 signal transduction has been widely studied , and it has become the most important research hotspot in the inflammatory reaction and its control method .In this paper , we review the recent progress of molecules involved in TLR 4 signaling pathway and their regulatory mechanisms .
