Several studies using partial structures of LPS have suggested that TLR4 determines the ligand specificity of this complex, and that CD14 indiscriminately serves to deliver the ligand to TLR4. This conclusion has been made despite observations that the response of TLR4(+/+),CD14(-/-) macrophages to LPS is very weak. To determine whether CD14 itself plays a role in specific ligand recognition, the influences of various partial structures of LPS on induction of the proinflammatory cytokine, TNF, by CD14(+/+) and CD14(-/-) macrophages were compared. These studies show that the ligand specificities of CD14(+/+) and CD14(-/-) macrophages are very different. When CD14 is present, the receptor complex shows exquisite specificity for smooth LPS, the major form expressed by Gram-negative bacteria; however, as increasing amounts of carbohydrate are removed from smooth LPS, the sensitivity of CD14(+/+) macrophages decreases as much as 500-fold. In contrast, CD14(-/-) macrophages are unable to distinguish between smooth LPS and its various partial structures. Furthermore, CD14(-/-) macrophages are 150,000-fold less sensitive than CD14(+/+) macrophages to smooth LPS. A similar ability to distinguish the differing LPS structures of various bacteria such as Bacteroides fragilis and Salmonella abortus are observed for CD14(+/+), but not CD14(-/-), macrophages. Thus, CD14(+/+), but not CD14(-/-), macrophages are highly sensitive to stimulation by natural forms of LPS and show the ability to distinguish between various LPS ligands, consistent with CD14 being a highly specific receptor."xsd:string |
