Background
CD14 is a glycoprotein that mediates the interaction of
lipopolysaccharide (LPS, endotoxin)
with cells, thereby signaling the presence of gram-negative
bacteria (1-3). CD14 is either
soluble (CD14) (4, 5) or membrane-bound (mCD14) by a
glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)
anchor (6, 7). mCD14 is a 55 kDa glycoprotein (1), while
CD14 varies from about 43 to 53 kDa,
depending on the degree of glycosylation and whether it was
synthesized without the anchor
or was shed by phospholipase cleavage of the anchor or by
proteolysis (12-14). There is no
evidence for different mRNAs for m- and CD14. There is no
apparent sequence homology with
other proteins. The sequence of human CD14 is 63-73%
identical to that of mouse, rat, or rabbit
CD14 (15).
mCD14 is expressed primarily on myeloid cells, such as
monocytes, macrophages and
neutrophils (1-3), the cells most sensitive to LPS, and to a
lesser extent on other cells, such as B
cells (8) and a circulating dendritic cell progenitor (9).
CD14 appears to mediate LPS stimulation
of cells that do not express mCD14 (10, 11), such as
endothelial, epithelial and smooth-muscle
cells. CD14 is found in both serum and urine (5).
The binding of LPS to CD14 requires an acute phase protein,
LPS-binding protein (LBP) (16).
The relationship of mCD14, CD14, LPS and LBP is complicated.
At low concentrations of LPS,
LBP is essential for the binding of LPS to CD14, but at high
concentrations, LBP may actually
inhibit binding of LPS to CD14. In addition, CD14 may
compete with mCD14 for LPS (17) and
may serve to help clear LPS (18). These four factors thus
appear to participate in a complex
feedback mechanism of immune regulation involving both
up-regulation and down-regulation
of the inflammatory process triggered by LPS. It is loss of
control of this mechanism that
appears to lead to septic shock. LPS-bound CD14 signals
production of inflammatory cytokines
and other inflammatory proteins, but the mechanism of signal
transduction is unclear. Since
a GPI anchor is not transmembrane, there presumably is
another transmembrane protein on
cells through which LPS-bound CD14 transmits a signal (19).
In addition to its well known role in gram-negative
infections, CD14 likely serves other
functions as well. It recognizes soluble peptidylglycan from
gram-positive cell walls (20), and it
has been reported to bind apoptotic cells and induce their
phagocytosis (21).

What is the difference between the Quantikine and Duoset ELISA kits?
- Our Quantikine kits are fully optimized and validated for the sample types listed on the product specific webpage and datasheet, as this can vary between kits. Each kit is supplied ready to use with one pre-coated 96-well plate, a detection antibody directly conjugated to HRP, and all other necessary reagents. These kits are ideal for researchers who want the convenience of a ready to use and optimized ELISA product. Some of these kits are also available prepackaged in larger 6 and 50 plate sizes.Our DuoSet Kits, in contrast, are ELISA development kits containing the capture and detection antibody, the mass-value calibrated standard, and streptavidin-HRP to prepare approximately 5 or 15 plates. Ancillary reagents will need to be used/purchased, and for most kits, we will recommend one of our Ancillary Reagent Kits, which contain the reagents we use ourselves in-house. DuoSet kits are validated only for cell culture supernatant samples and therefore require further development and validation for accurate measurement in more complex samples such as serum and plasma. Our DuoSet Kits offer an economical, flexible alternative for the experienced ELISA user.
