immune system
• macrophages are unresponsive to macrophage activating lipopeptide 2 kD (MALP-2)
• normal response of macrophages to lipopeptides of other bacterial origins
|
• cytokine production by macrophages in response to diacylated (macrophage activating lipopeptide 2 kD [MALP-2]), but not to tiracylated, lipopeptides is completely abrogated
|
• macrophages produce no NO and IL-12 in response to MALP-2 together with IFN-gamma
|
• MEFs treated with MALP-2 fail to produce IL-6
|
• macrophages produce no TNF-alpha in response to MALP-2
• macrophages show impaired TNF-alpha production in response to heat-killed mycoplasma
|
hematopoietic system
• macrophages are unresponsive to macrophage activating lipopeptide 2 kD (MALP-2)
• normal response of macrophages to lipopeptides of other bacterial origins
