Abstract
The 53 kDa glycoprotein CD14 (cluster of differentiation No. 14, defined by monoclonal antibodies of the 1st Leukocyte Typing Workshop) is expressed on monocyte surfaces and was identified 1990 as an endotoxin receptor (1). The binding of endotoxin to CD14 was mediated by a LPS-binding protein (LBP) present in serum.
