LPS treatment led to a rapid increase of the SARM expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and as a result an increased association between SARM and TICAM1 (Carty M et al. 2006). Moreover, suppression of endogenous SARM expression by siRNA led to enhanced TLR4-dependent gene induction in both transformed HEK293 and primary PBMC cells, while endotoxin-tolerant human monocytes showed increased expression of SARM and decreased activation of TICAM1-dependent cytokines (Carty M et al. 2006; Piao W et al. 2009). Thus, SARM negatively regulates TICAM1 (TRIF)-dependent TLR4 signaling pathway.
