Currently, attention was mainly paid to biased signaling modulators targeting G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs The biased signaling modulation of non-GPCR receptors has yet to be exploited. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is one such non-GPCR receptor, which involves MyD88-dependent and TRIF-dependent modulators of TLR4 would provide insight for the future development of biased modulators for other non-GPCR
