S100A9 bound to TLR4 activates ERK. 1 / 1

"S100A9 binds TLR4 and thereby activates p38, Extracellular signalregulated kinase 1(ERK)1/2 and Jun N-terminal kinase signaling, and this TLR4associated S100A9 effect seems to be a part of the mechanism behind the adverse prognostic impact of S100A8.Taken together these studies suggest that TLR4 expression by AML cells is associated with an adverse prognosis (i.e., a part of a high-risk leukemic cell phenotype), and TLR4 inhibition can have a chemosensitizing and/or direct antileukemic effect."
