Background
CD14 is a 50-55 kDa glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein. CD14 is preferentially expressed on monocytes and macrophages. CD14 acts as a co-receptor (along with TLR4 and MD-2) for bacterial liposaccharides (LPS). It plays a major role in the inflammatory response of monocytes to LPS. Soluble forms of CD14 (sCD14) have been detected in cell culture supernatants and in human serum and urine, either shedded from the cell surface or released from intracellular pools. Increased release of sCD14 from monocytes is observed after stimulation with various agents, and sCD14 may therefore be a marker for activation of monocytes/macrophages.
