Lipoproteins inhibit macrophage activation by lipoteichoic acid

Lipoproteins inhibit macrophage activation by lipoteichoic acid

Regulation of lipid metabolism during infection is thought to be part of host defense, as lipoproteins neutralize endotoxin (LPS) and viruses. Gram-positive infections also induce disturbances in lipid metabolism. Therefore, we investigated whether lipoproteins could inhibit the toxic effects of lip...
