Abstract
⺠Chimpanzees, horses and humans have regions of similarity on TLR4 and MD2 promoters. ⺠Rodents have few regions of similarity on TLR4 promoter when compared to primates. ⺠Conserved NFkB binding sites were found in the promoters of TLR4 and MD2. ⺠LPS-induced inhibition of TLR4 transcription is reversed by dexamethasone. ⺠LPS-induced transcription of MD2 is inhibited by dexamethasone.
