Abstract

TLR-4 signals via two distinct pathways, a MyD88-TIRAP pathway and a TRAM dependent pathway. Previous work in our laboratory has suggested a central role of TLR-4 in injury development in an in vivo model of lung ischemia reperfusion (IR). To further understand how TLR-4 activation translates to injury in lung IR, we sought to examine the functional requirements of the adapter proteins in alveolar macrophages using a primary cell culture model of hypoxia and reoxygenation.
