In addition to the pathways regulating the expression of the
TREM-1 gene, an important mechanism that regulates the ex-
pression of the protein on the cell membrane is likely to be
represented by its shedding from the cell membrane by enzy-
matic processes, such as activation of MMPs [21]. MMPs are
up-regulated upon stimulation with several different bacterial
products [22, 23] and in the case of LPS, by a pathway depen-

The exact mechanism of how TREM-1 expression may be con-
trolled by MMPs or another mechanism of cleavage remains to
be defined and hence, is an interesting field for future re-
search.
