Mechanistic description

A longitudinal biomarker panel centered on plasma LPS-binding protein can distinguish harmful mechanisms from protective adaptation. The decisive experiment is to measure plasma LPS-binding protein before and after TLR4 antagonism in stratified models.

Mechanism / pathway

  1. plasma LPS-binding protein
  2. SCFA depletion
  3. neurodegeneration
