  • Title: Prevention of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis by bacterial lipopolysaccharides: inhibition of cell-mediated immunity.
    Author: Raziuddin S, Kibler RF, Morrison DC.
    Journal: J Immunol; 1981 Jul; 127(1):13-6. PubMed ID: 6165758.
    Abstract:
    The immunization of Lewis rats with bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) precomplexed to guinea pig myelin basic protein (BP) in complete Freund's adjuvant inhibits the development of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in these animals. These protected animals fail to manifest significant in vivo delayed-type hypersensitivity skin tests and in vitro lymphocyte proliferative responses to BP. Our results indicated that LPS induces a nonspecific reduction in immune reactivity of BP in Lewis rats.
