LPS is a surface molecule unique to Gram-negative bacteria that plays a key role as an elicitor of innate immune responses, ranging from localized inflammation to disseminated sepsis [3]. The O-antigen, which is the most surface-exposed

In this chapter, several natural and synthetic molecules that modulate the TLR4-mediated LPS signalling in animals and humans are presented, and their mechanisms of action are discussed. The synthetic or natural TLR4 modulators will be grouped as:

Such protective mechanisms are found in all multicellular organisms and are collectively referred to as innate immunity.
