Abstract
Thousand and one amino acid kinase 1 (TAOK1) is a member of Ste20-like kinases, but its function in regulating inflammatory responses remains largely unknown. In this study, we identify TAOK1 as a positive regulator of TLR4-triggered inflammatory responses in macrophages. TAOK1 increases LPS-induced production of pro-inflammatory cytokine such as IL-6, TNF-
