Selected N. meningitidis surface proteins stimulate TLR-mediated cytokine induction. Bg-PMϕ from WT and MyD88–/– mice were stimulated with 1 µg/ml of the purified recombinant N. meningitidis surface proteins and the induction of IL-6 (a) and TNF-α (b) was measured. Cells were separately stimulated with E. coli LPS (100 ng/ml), which served as a positive control for cytokine induction.
