Annexins are Ca2+-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins with anti-inflammatory properties that are present on the surfaces of, and released from, certain cell types, such as leukocytes and secretory epithelia. The present study investigated the possibility that annexins may bind directly to bacterial endotoxin, inhibiting its interactions with cellular receptors or accessory binding proteins. An enzyme-linked immunoassay demonstrated calcium-dependent binding of low nanomolar concentrations of annexin-I and annexin-II p36/p11 heterotetramer to lipid A. In contrast, little or no annexin binding to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was detected under similar conditions. LPS-binding protein binding to lipid A was blocked by annexin-I, and the annexins inhibited nitrite generation in RAW 264.7 cells induced by lipid A but not that induced by LPS. The data suggest that direct binding of annexins to lipid A may represent a mechanism for suppressing cellular and systemic responses to endotoxin.
