Overproduction of acyloxyacyl hydrolase by macrophages and dendritic cells prevents prolonged reactions to bacterial lipopolysaccharide in vivo.

Although recognition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) by the myeloid differentiation factor 2-Toll-like receptor 4 complex is important for triggering protective inflammatory responses in animals, terminating many of these responses requires LPS inactivation by a host lipase, acyloxyacyl hydrolase (AOAH)...
