The lipid A component of bacterial lipopolysaccharides (endotoxins), when complexed to bovine serum albumin (BSA) or human serum albumin (HSA), was shown to be a potent pyrogen. Furthermore, rabbits could be protected against endotoxin fever by immunization with both lipid A.BSA and lipid A.HSA complexes. The results presented in this paper show that lipid A is responsible for the pyrogenic activity of endotoxins and their ability to induce pyrogenic immunity.
细菌脂多糖(内毒素)的脂质A成分,当与牛血清白蛋白(BSA)或人血清白蛋白(HSA)复合时,被证明是一种强效热原。此外,用脂质A.BSA和脂质A.HSA复合物免疫兔子可以预防内毒素发热。本文给出的结果表明,脂质A对内毒素的致热活性及其诱导热原免疫的能力负责。
