Polymyxin B Attenuates LPS-Induced Death but Aggravates Radiation-Induced Death via TLR4-Myd88-IL-6 Pathway

Polymyxin B Attenuates LPS-Induced Death but Aggravates Radiation-Induced Death via TLR4-Myd88-IL-6 Pathway

Background/Aims: Polymyxin B (PMB) is a cyclic cationic polypeptide antibiotic widely used to counteract the effects of endotoxin contamination, both in vitro and in vivo. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is an endotoxin that acts as a radiation protection factor. In this study, we focus on the role of PMB...
