Mycobacterial cell walls. II. Chemical composition of the "basal layer".
Takeya, Kenji (Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan), Kazuhito Hisatsune, and Yasuko Inoue. Mycobacterial cell walls. II. Chemical composition of the "basal layer." J. Bacteriol. 85:24-30. 1963.-Chemical composition of the "basal layer" of the mycobacterial cell wall was determined. The layer contained 35% amino acids, 41.5% reducing sugars (mainly composed of arabinose and galactose), 13.8% amino...
متن کاملDevelopment of IgG responses to mycobacterial antigens.
Recent studies link mycobacterial and human heat shock protein antigens with autoimmune diseases. Little is known about the development of antibody responses to these antigens in children. IgG responses to mycobacterial antigens were studied in children living in the UK (an environment low in mycobacteria) who had not received BCG vaccination. Age curves of IgG response to sonicates from differ...
متن کاملEvidence for the nature of the link between the arabinogalactan and peptidoglycan of mycobacterial cell walls.
The long-posed question of the nature of the link between the mycolylarabinogalactan and the underlying peptidoglycan of the cell walls of Mycobacterium sp. has been addressed. The insoluble cell wall matrix of Mycobacterium leprae, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Mycobacterium bovis was partially hydrolyzed with acid either before or after per-O-methylation and the resulting oligosaccharides f...
متن کاملBiological study of a nontoxic, water-soluble immunoadjuvant from mycobacterial cell walls.
Whole mycobacterial cells, which are used in Freund's complete adjuvant, besides inducing hypersensitivity to tuberculoprotein, also can elicit hyperreactivity to endotoxins, lymphoid hyperplasia, and allergic polyarthritis in rats. The data reported here demonstrate that a potent water-soluble adjuvant obtained from mycobacterial cell walls is also effective in increasing the immune response t...
متن کاملImmunotherapy of a guinea pig hepatoma with mycobacterial vaccines: comparison of BCG cell walls and cell wall skeletons.
BCG cell wall skeletons (SK) derived from BCG cell walls (CW) by treatment with proteolytic enzymes and organic solvents were tested for their potency to cause regression of a transplanted guinea pig hepatoma. On a weight basic, SK were as effective as CW in causing tumor regression, and they, as well as purified protein derivative of mycobacteria, provoked delayed cutaneous hypersensitivity re...
