Directed evolution of an LBP/CD14 inhibitory peptide and its anti-endotoxin activity.

<h4>Background</h4>LPS-binding protein (LBP) and its ligand CD14 are located upstream of the signaling pathway for LPS-induced inflammation. Blocking LBP and CD14 binding might prevent LPS-induced inflammation. In previous studies, we obtained a peptide analog (MP12) for the LBP/CD14 bin...
