Apolipoprotein A-I diminishes acute lung injury and sepsis in mice induced by lipoteichoic acid

Lipoteichoic acid (LTA), as a primary immunostimulus, triggers the systematic inflammatory responses. Our hypothesis is that ApoA-I can neutralize LTA toxicity, like its effect on LPS. BALB/c mice were challenged with LTA, followed by human ApoA-I administration. We found
