Description générale

This product is extracted from E. coli serotype O55:B5 and purified by ion exchange. The source strain is CDC 1644-70. The LPS O55:B5 has been used to stimulate human peritoneal macrophages at 1 ng/mL and to stimulate equine peritoneal macrophages at 1-100 ng/mL.

Application

Les lipopolysaccharides (LPS) sont des constituants caractéristiques de la paroi cellulaire des bactéries à Gram négatif. Les LPS et leur fraction lipidique (lipide A) stimulent les cellules du système immunitaire inné via le récepteur TLR4 (Toll-Like Receptor 4), un membre de la famille des récepteurs de type Toll, qui reconnaît la signature moléculaire des principaux agents pathogènes (PAMP).

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are localized in the outer layer of the membrane and are, in noncapsulated strains, exposed on the cell surface. They contribute to the integrity of the outer membrane, and protect the cell against the action of bile salts and lipophilic antibiotics.

Notes préparatoires

The product is soluble in water (5 mg/ml) or cell culture medium (1 mg/ml) yielding a hazy, faint yellow solution. A more concentrated, though still hazy, solution (20 mg/ml) has been achieved in aqueous saline after vortexing and warming to 70-80 oC. Lipopolysaccharides are molecules that form micelles in every solvent. Hazy solutions are observed in water and phosphate buffered saline. Organic solvents do not give clearer solutions. Methanol yields a turbid suspension with floaters, while water yields a homogeneously hazy solution.
