Abstract
Bacterial lipopolysaccharide endotoxins are potent inflammatory agents that have many physiologic and biochemical effects in vivo. Although a wide variety of biological responses to endotoxin have been well characterized, the molecular mechanism by which endotoxin influences cellular functions is still not established.
