Bacterial lipopolysaccharide activates suppressor B lymphocytes.
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) extracted from the outer cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria modulates the immune response in vivo and in vitro. Depending on the experimental conditions, it may enhance or inhibit the production of humoral antibody. The pathway by which LPS suppresses antibody production is examined in this study. C57BL/6 spleen cells incubated with LPS (greater than 10 micrograms/ml) ...
متن کاملLipopolysaccharide from Salmonella enterica activates NF-kappaB through both classical and alternative pathways in primary B Lymphocytes.
Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are potent polyclonal B-lymphocyte activators. Recently, we have shown that LPS inhibits both spontaneous and drug-induced apoptosis in mature B lymphocytes, through cytosolic retention of Bax, a proapoptotic protein of the Bcl-2 family, by preventing its translocation to mitochondria. Research within the last few years has revealed that members of the NF-kappaB transc...
متن کاملUltraviolet B but not A radiation activates suppressor B cells in draining lymph nodes.
Immunosuppressive doses of solar-simulated UV radiation activate lymph node B cells that can suppress primary immunity by inhibiting the function of dendritic cells. The aim of this study was to determine the waveband responsible for activation of these suppressor B cells. We exposed C57BL/6 mice to various doses of either UVA or UVB radiation and analyzed the number and activation state of lym...
