The highly variable carboxy-terminal end of the Tlr4 cytoplasmic domain may be seen as the embodiment of interspecific differences in LPS sensitivity, although the poor conservation of this portion of the molecule might alternatively be taken to indicate a neutral effect of mutation.
Using LPS, which we have previously shown is a rapid and potent in vitro activator of neonatal microglia [ 7 ] as our positive control, we focused our investigation on three microglia mediators which are released upon LPS activation, namely TNF-α, MMP-9 and O 2 - [ 7 ] . Our present study demonstrates that in contrast to LPS, during a 6 hour in vitro exposure to domoic acid, neonatal rat microglia release small, but statistically significant amounts of TNF-α and MMP-9.
The presumed ligand for Tlr4 is LPS itself, presented alone or in conjunction with another protein (for example CD14) [ 13], and the relatively high frequency of polymorphism observed in Tlr4 may be viewed as a consequence of the protective effect rendered by LPS recognition and the variability of LPS structure.
.. " [ 32 ] . Interestingly, because rat neonatal microglia have been shown to express BDNF [ 57 ] and bFGF [ 58 ] , and in view of the fact that LPS can affect BDNF gene expression in rat neonatal microglia cells [ 59 ] , experiments are currently underway in our laboratory to determine if domoic acid may affect neonatal rat microglia expression of both BDNF and bFGF.
The production of cytokines by gallbladder epithelial cells following LPS exposure demonstrates that biliary epithelial cells may be an active partner with the immune system in the detection of and defense against bacteria in bile.
