Background

Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP), a 58 kDa glycoprotein synthesized in hepatocytes, belongs to a family of lipid-binding proteins which includes bactericidal/permeability increasing protein (BPI), phospholipid ester transfer protein (PLTP), and cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP). LBP binds to the lipid A portion of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to facilitate the process of LPS monomerization, catalyze the binding of LPS monomers to CD14, and promote LPS-induced immune response. LBP is present at low concentrations in normal human serum and may increase up to 30-fold during the acute phase response. Studies indicate that LBP also acts catalytically in the transfer of LPS to HDL, thus accelerating LPS detoxification. In addition, LBP and soluble CD14 can also function in phospholipid transport.
