It functions as a high affinity receptor for the complex of LipoPolySaccharide (LPS) and the LPS-Binding Protein (LBP). It is found on cells of myelomonocytic lineage. CD14 antigen is strongly expressed on monocytes, macrophages, and weakly on neutrophils. It is also weakly expressed on B lymphocytes, but is absent from T lymphocytes, NK cells, red blood cells and platelets.
