InTRODUCTION

Immune responses induced by Microbe-Associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) are critical for the body's defense against pathogens.

This article discussed how AOAH may increase sensitivity to pulmonary allergens.

Researchers reviewed recent progress in understanding how this enzyme, acyloxyacyl hydrolase (AOAH), transforms LPS from stimulus to inhibitor, and keeps stimulatory LPS from entering the bloodstream.

SENSING LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDES

From stimulus to inhibitor: the importance of LPS acylation

STRUCTURE & BIOSYNTHESIS OF AOAH

Cellular sources of AOAH

AOAH prevents, moderates, and terminates responses to LPS

IS AOAH An essential gene? OR HAVE ANY Disease associations?
