Lipopolysaccharide from Porphyromonas gingivalis

LPS-PG is a purified preparation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from the Gram-negative bacteria Porphyromonas gingivalis. LPS-PG is an important virulence factor in the mechanisms of peridontal disease. LPS is the principal component of Gram negative bacteria that activates the innate immune system.

LPS recognition is predominantly mediated by TLR4 [1]. The TLR4 response to LPS-PG is dependent on the presence of key accessory molecules, CD14 and MD2 [2].

LPS-PG presents a unique and heterogenous chemical structure, which differs from traditionally recognized enteric bacterium-derived LPS. The fact that LPS-PG exhibits activity in C3H/HeJ mice, which are deficient for TLR4, led to a common belief that this LPS is a TLR2 ligand [3, 4].

However, structural and functional studies of LPS-PG have revealed that it activates cells through TLR4.

The TLR2 activity of LPS-PG is ascribed to a contaminant lipoprotein [5].

InvivoGen provides LPS-PG with two grades of purity:

  • LPS-PG is a standard lipopolysaccharide (LPS) preparation.

  • LPS-PG Ultrapure underwent enzymatic treatment to remove lipoproteins and hence only activates TLR4.
