After LPS binds to TLR-4, TLR-4 then binds proteins in the cytosol, starting a cascade of reactions that activates transcription factors such as nuclear factor kappa B (NF?B), initiating transcription of downstream genes. Many of the NF?B-regulated genes encode host response proteins, such as the cytokines that activate cells and initiate inflammation.
