Cord factor, a glycolipid in mycobacteria, was found to make a tolerogenic protein antigen immunogenic when injected 0 to 2 days before tolerogen injection in mice and rats. Cord factor was also found to increase phagocytic function of the reticuloendothelial system of mice, and the relationship between the immunity-inducing capacity and the phagocytic function is discussed.
索状因子是分枝杆菌中的一种糖脂,研究发现,在小鼠和大鼠体内,于耐受原注射前0至2天注射索状因子,可使耐受性蛋白抗原具有免疫原性。还发现索状因子可增强小鼠网状内皮系统的吞噬功能,并对免疫诱导能力与吞噬功能之间的关系进行了讨论。
