TLR4-mediated release of heparin-binding protein in human airways: a co-stimulatory role for IL-26

BackgroundBacterial infection causes accumulation of neutrophils that release antimicrobial proteins including heparin-binding protein (HBP). In human airways, this neutrophil accumulation can be re-capitulated via intrabronchial exposure to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) ag...
