pubmed:abstractText |
Antibody responses of mice immunized with type III pneumococcal polysaccharide were examined with and without treatment with nontoxic lipopolysaccharide from Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides (Rs-LPS). The results obtained were similar to those described previously for mice treated with monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL) except that lower amounts of Rs-LPS were needed. Both were without effect when given at the time of immunization with type III pneumococcal polysaccharide but elicited significant enhancement when given 2 to 3 days later. Such enhancement was T cell dependent and not due to polyclonal activation of immunoglobulin M synthesis by B cells. Treatment with either Rs-LPS or MPL abolished the expression but not induction of low-dose paralysis, a form of immunological unresponsiveness known to be mediated by suppressor T cells (Ts). The in vitro treatment of cell suspensions containing Ts with extremely small amounts of Rs-LPS or MPI completely eliminated the capacity of such cells to transfer suppression to other mice. These findings indicate that the immunomodulatory effects of both MPL and Rs-LPS are mainly the result of eliminating the inhibitors effects of Ts; this permits the positive effects of amplifier T cells to be more fully expressed, thereby resulting in an increased antibody response. The significance of these and other findings to the use of Rs-LPS as a pharmacotherapeutic agent for gram-negative bacterial sepsis is discussed.
