LBP and Sepsis: It is known that LBP can dissemble LPS aggregatesand deliver theLPS monomer to lipoproteins for LPS clearance.16,37 It has been hypothesized that, as a part of the immune responsein sepsis, the human body promotes the production of LBP to aid theremoval of LPS by lipoprotein, which reduces the amount of LPS incirculation.38 The LBP concentration inthe blood for healthy individuals is around 4.1 ± 1.65 μg/mLfor healthy individuals and ∼31.2 μg/mL (interquartilerange, 22.5–47.7 μg/mL) for septic patients.28 We also observed that LBP promotes LPS adsorptionby lipid droplets.
