1 Hexaacylated LPS is the prototypic example of a bacterial molecule recognized by the receptor complex TLR4/MD-2 with its lipid A moiety, whereas bacterial lipopeptides are recognized by TLR2. Lipid A toll like receptor 4 Homo sapiens
2 Here we show that a series of synthetic triacylated lipid A-like molecules are weak Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists (mainly TLR2 agonists) but very potent TLR4/MD-2 antagonists (submicromolar range). Lipid A toll like receptor 4 Homo sapiens
