Biochem/physiol Actions

Neoseptin-3 is a highly efficacious and specific agonist of the mouse TLR4 (mTLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 2 (MD-2) complex. Neoseptin-3 binds to MD2, changes the conformation of MD-2 and facilitates active TLR4/MD-2 dimer formation. Neoseptin-3 exhibits no structural similarity to lipid A.
Neoseptin-3 stimulates the activity of mouse TLR4 (mTLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 2 (mTLR) independently of CD14 (cluster of differentiation 14). This activated mTLR4/ mTLR promotes canonical myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 (MyD88) and toll-interleukin(IL) 1 receptor (TIR) domain-containing adaptor inducing interferon (IFN)-β (TRIF)-dependent signaling. In addition, neoseptin-3 also stimulates tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), IL-6 and IFNβ production in a dose-dependent manner.

Structurally disparate molecules reportedly engage and activate Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 and other TLRs, yet the interactions that mediate binding and activation by dissimilar ligands remain unknown. We describe Neoseptins, chemically synthesized peptidomimetics that bear no structural similarity to the
