Mammalian cells recognize LPS from Gram-negative bacteria via the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) complex. During experimental Salmonella infection, C3H/HeJ mice carrying a dominant-negative mutation in TLR4 exhibited delayed chemokine production, impaired NO generation, and attenuated cellular immune responses. However, dramatically enhanced bacterial growth within the Kupffer cell network before the recruitment of inflammatory cells appeared to be primarily responsible for the early demise of Salmonella-infected TLR4-deficient mice. LPS-TLR4 signaling plays an essential role in the generation of both innate and adaptive immune responses throughout the course of infection with Gram-negative bacteria. Alternative pattern-recognition receptors cannot completely compensate for the loss of TLR4, and compensation occurs at the expense of an increased microbial burden.
