Lipopolysaccharides from Different Burkholderia Species with Different Lipid A Structures Induce Toll-Like Receptor 4 Activation and React with Melioidosis Patient Sera
23 Sept 2019
Abstract excerpt
Lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) of Gram-negative bacteria comprise lipid A, core, and O-polysaccharide (OPS) components. Studies have demonstrated that LPSs isolated from the pathogenic species Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei and from less-pathogenic species, such as Burkholderia thailandensis , are potent immune stimulators.
