a(CHEBI:heme) increases bp(MESH:"Macrophage Activation") View Subject | View Object

In mice, this response was attenuated after administration of the TLR-4 inhibitor, TAK-242, suggesting hemin potentiates pulmonary macrophage activation and inflammation through hemin-induced TLR-4 receptor binding [27]. PubMed:30281034
