Abstract
CD14 in apoptosis This study defines a previously unknown specific role for CD14, a molecule that, in conjunction with other receptors, recognizes the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of bacterial cell wall. CD14 is shown to regulate dendritic cell apoptosis after LPS stimulation via a PLC-γ2–Ca2+–NFAT-dependent pathway. This finding significantly advances the knowledge of the molecular events occurring during the initial phases of defence to bacterial infections.
