Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) evokes several functional responses in the neutrophil
that contribute to innate immunity. Although certain responses, such as adhesion and
synthesis of tumor necrosis factor-α, are inhibited by pretreatment with an inhibitor of p38
mitogen-activated protein kinase, others, such as actin assembly, are unaffected. The aim of
the present study was to investigate the changes in neutrophil gene transcription and protein
expression following lipopolysaccharide exposure and to establish their dependence on …
