determination of lipid a and endotoxin in serum by mass spectroscopy.a quantitative technique for determining lipid a content of endotoxin added to serum by combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry is described. this technique uses detection of the beta-hydroxymyristic acid content of salmonella minnesota r595 lipopolysaccharide by selected ion monitoring at atomic mass unit of 315.4 the fatty acids produced on hydrolysis of serum containing lipopolysaccharide were extracted and the methyl esters were made. silica gel chromatography was used to separate meth ...197816592555
activation of complement by opportunist pathogens and chemotypes of salmonella minnesota.washed cells of staphylococcus aureus, escherichia coli, proteus mirabilis, pseudomonas aeruginosa, and salmonella minnesota chemotypes (s, rb, and re) were tested for their ability to activate the alternative complement pathway (acp). parameters of acp activation were (i) conversion of c3 in 10 mm ethyleneglycol-bis-(beta-aminoethyl ether)-n,n1-tetraacetic acid-treated human serum supplemented with 2.5 mm mgcl2, (ii) lysis of glutathione-treated human erythrocytes in the presence of human serum ...1977408268
susceptibility of lipopolysaccharide mutants to the bactericidal action of human neutrophil lysosomal fractions.acetate extracts of purified human neutrophil granules (a mixed population containing specific and azurophil granules) were dialyzed against phosphate-buffered saline (ph 7.0) and tested for bactericidal activity against smooth parent and rough mutant, gram-negative bacteria. rough (re) mutants of escherichia coli, salmonella typhimurium, and salmonella minnesota were exquisitely more sensitive to extracts of human polymorphonuclear leukocyte granules than were their smooth (s) parents. the mean ...1977326666
cross-reactive antigens: their potential for immunization-induced immunity to gram-negative bacteria.the involvement of multiple species and serologic types in gram-negative bacteremia prompted evaluation of immunization with shared, cross-reactive antigens of gram negative bacilli. active and passive immunization with re chemotype mutants of salmonella minnesota afforded significant protection against heterologous gram-negative bacilli and were considerably more effective than immunization with smooth s. minnesota or its ra, rb, rc, rd1 and rd2 mutants. since the lipopolysaccharide of the re m ...1977330775
binding of bacterial endotoxin to murine spleen lymphocytes.the early events in lipopolysaccharide (lps)-induced b-cell activation were investigated by studying the binding of 14c-labeled lps to murine lymphocytes in vitro. in these studies we utilized intrinsically labeled 14c-labeled lps from salmonella minnesota or the 14c-labeled glycolipid derived from the re mutant of s. minnesota (r595). bone marrow-derived (b) lymphocytes bound more lps than did thymus-derived (t) lymphocytes. binding of lps to murine spleen lymphocytes from strain c3h/hen was co ...1977299851
immunization with r mutants of salmonella minnesota. ii. comparison of the protective effect of immunization with lipid a and the re mutant.the protective effect of active immunization with salmonella minnesota re bacilli or lipid a was assessed in the granulocytopenic rabbit model. animals were immunized with re bacilli, lipid a, or pseudomonas aeruginosa as a nonspecific immunogen. after colonization with one of three enterobacterial strains (two escherichia coli, one enterobacter aerogenes), the immunized rabbits as well as controls given saline injections were made leukopenic with nitrogen mustard and monitored for fever, bacter ...1977407161
effect of aerosol immunization with re 595 salmonella minnesota on lung bactericidal activity against serratia marcescens, enterobacter cloacae, and pseudomonas aeruginosa.intrapulmonary bactericidal activity was measured after mice were given 3 weekly aerosol exposures to acid-hydrolyzed re 595 salmonella minnesota. ten days after their last immunization, mice were challenged with aerolized serratia marcescens, enterobacter cloacae, or pseudomonas aeruginosa. quantitative bacterial counts in ground lung were obtained immediately after exposure and again 4 hours later. enhanced bactericidal activity against serratia marcescens and enterobacter cloacae was seen in ...1977407823
a sensitive substrate for the clotting enzyme in horseshoe crab hemocytes.an endotoxin-activated hemocyte lysate from horseshoe crab (tachypleus and limulus) was found to hydrolyze specifically bz-ile-glu-gly-arg-p-nitroanilide, which was recently introduced as the substrate for assay of the blood coagulation factor, factor xa. further, this amidase activity increased by increasing the concentration of bacterial endotoxin (salmonella minnesota r595) added to the lysate. thus, the measurement of the amidase activity in the hemocyte lysate can be very useful to detect a ...197719439
cross-protective immunity to gram-negative bacilli: studies with core glycolipid of salmonella minnesota and antigens of streptococcus pneumoniae.two immunoprophylactic approaches to the control of infections caused by gramnegative bacilli were evaluated by study of experimental infections in animals. the core glycolipid antigen derived from the re mutant of salmonella minnesota r595 is shared by virtually all enteric bacteria, and immunization with this endotoxin protects against the hemodynamic sequelae of bacterial infection and pyrexia without enhancing intravascular clearance of bacteria. the degree of protection afforded by active a ...197719538
detection by immunofluorescence of common antigenic determinants in unrelated gram-negative bacteria and their lipopolysaccharides.various gram-negative bacteria were subjected to mild acid hydrolysis. the acid-treated bacteria exhibited strong cross-reactivity with fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated antiserum to the re mutant of salmonella minnesota. hydrolyzed bacteria showed considerably stronger fluorescence than heat-treated bacteria. it is assumed that acid hydrolysis uncovers shared glycolipid determinants that are responsible for cross-reactivity. isolated homologous and heterologous lipopolysaccharides were allo ...197768087
immunization with r mutants of salmonella minnesota. ii. serological response to lipid a and the lipopolysaccharide of re mutants.rabbits were immunized with salmonella minnesota re mutant bacilli or lipid a, and the serological responses were compared. re lipopolysaccharide and lipid a were found to possess distinct antigenic determinants as measured by hemagglutination, hemolysis, and precipitin techniques. lipid a preparations from several enterobacterial and non-enterobacterial species were shown to cross-react in agar gel precipitation reactions. in contrast, preparations from bacilli that do not contain glucosamine a ...197769613
salmonellae in health foods.various health food products of different brands were purchased from stores in the metropolitan atlanta area. these foods were examined for the presence of salmonellae by fluorescent-antibody and cultural methods. included in the study were tablets of alfalfa, parsley, kelp, wheat bran, enzyme, bone meal, and vitamins. beef liver powder and tablets and granola cereal were also studied. salmonella minnesota, salmonella anatum, and salmonella derby were isolated from two of three lots of beef live ...1977563217

[investigations on the fatty acid composition of lipids from salmonella minnesota s and r forms (author's transl)].non-covalently bound lipids were extracted from 2 salmonella minnesota s forms and 5 r mutants (chemotype ra-re) isolated from these strains. the lipids were subsequently analysed with regard to fatty acid composition. the extracts were free of lipid a, as determined by absence of beta-hydroxymyristic acid. the fatty acid distribution in the lipids of the two s forms, cultivated at 37 degrees c to the beginning of the stationary phase of growth, agreed very closely, and the values corresponded t ...19761015016
serum bactericidal activity in the horseshoe crab, limulus polyphemus.serum from the horseshoe crab, limulus polyphemus, was examined for bactericidal activity against five species of bacteria. greatest activity was found against pseudomonas putida and flavobacterium sp.; with the former, serum dilutions as high as 1:20 were capable of reducing viable counts by 50% within 2 h. bactericidal activity of a significantly lesser magnitude was demonstrated against serratia marcesencs and salmonella minnesota. no killing was seen when the lobster pathogen aerococcus viri ...197611188
inhibition of lipopolysaccharide-initiated activation of serum complement by polymyxin b.treatment of bacterial lipopolysaccharides (endotoxins) isolated from salmonella minnesota r595 or purified lipid a with the antibiotic polymyxin b has been demonstrated to abrogate the ability of these molecules to activate serum complement. the inhibition is a function of the ratio of polymyxin b to lipopolysaccharide.1976175019
isolation and analysis of the lipid a backbone. lipid a structure of lipopolysaccharides from various bacterial groups.a degradation procedure of lipopolysaccharides was worked out which allows the isolation of the reduced backbone of lipid a in a total yield of between 20 and 30%. this procedure was applied to lipopolysaccharides of s forms (salmonella minnesota, shigella flexneri 5b, escherichia coli 086, e. coli 0111, xanthomonas sinensis, rhodopseudomonas gelatinosa) and r mutants (salmonella minnesota, shigella flexneri, 5b, e. coli bb9 and e. coli eh 100). chemical analysis, reaction with beta-n-acetyl-glu ...1976770165
relationship of structure to function in bacterial endotoxins. ix. differences in the lipid moiety of endotoxic glycolipids.chemical, immunochemical, chromatographic, and endotoxic properties of five chromatographically pure glycolipids were compared. the preparations were extracted by chloroform-methanol from three escherichia coli, one salmonella minnesota, and one s. typhimurium re heptoseless mutant strains. the local shwartzman skin assay, the nonspecific resistance-enhancing effect, and the limulus assays could not distinguish among the five glycolipids, all five being active in all three assays. significant di ...1976770436
relationship of structure to function in bacterial endotoxins: serologically cross-reactive components and their effect on protection of mice against some gram-negative infections.rabbit antisera were prepared against the heptoseless re mutants, salmonella minnesota r595 and s. typhimurium sli102, as well as against purified r595 glycolipid coated on autologous erythrocytes. the antisera cross-reacted with the endotoxic glycolipids extracted from re mutants of various bacterial strains, including s. minnesota r595, s. typhimurium sli102, escherichia coli d3im4, e. coli d2if2 and e. coli f515, as shown by passive haemagglutination and gel diffusion tests. the anti-re sera ...1976778329
influence of temperature on growth of lipopolysaccharide-deficient (rough) mutants of salmonella typhimurium and salmonella minnesota.smooth strains of salmonella typhimurium and s. minnesota, and chemotypes ra, rb, and rc, which are deficient in lipopolysaccharide components of the somatic side chains and outer core region, grow normally on nutrient agar and nutrient broth up to 45 degrees c. however, most mutants with defects in the heptose region of the lps (chemotypes rd2 and re) do not grow on this medium at 42 degrees c or above; a few grow at 42 degrees c but not at 45 degrees c. in liquid medium (nutrient broth, or pho ...1976788869
effect of active and passive immunizations with lipid a and salmonella minnesota re 595 on gram-negative infections in mice.the capacity of lipid a, a structure common to the lipopolysaccharide cores of all gram-negative bacteria, to serve as an active immunizing agent in mice and to protect these animals against gram-negative infections was investigated. active immunization experiments were also performed with the re mutant of salmonella minnesota 595 which carries a lipopolysaccharide composed of lipid a and three residues of ketodeoxyoctonic acid. single injections of lipid a complexed to acid-hydrolyzed bacteria ...1976789248
specific and nonspecific immunity to serratia marcescens infection.by specific active or passive immunization, mice were protected against lethal infection with serratia marcescens. animals that were immunized against organisms of the challenge strain o serotype survived, whereas animals that were immunized against other serratia o serotypes did not survive. protective sera (from convalescent partients or immunized rabbits) contained a specific complement-independent opsonin. these sera also contained passive hemagglutinating and bacterial agglutinating antibod ...1976789788
lipid a, the active part of bacterial endotoxins in inducing serum colony stimulating activity and proliferation of splenic granulocyte/macrophage progenitor cells.an analysis of which component of lipopolysaccharides (lps), the lipid or the polysaccharide (ps), is active in stimulating the murine granulopoietic system has been performed. lps with different structures, isolated from different mutant strains of salmonella and chemical degradation products of lipopolysaccharides have been used. lipid a obtained by acid hydrolysys of the lps and complexed to bovine serum albumin (bsa) (lipid a-bsa) was shown to be active in generating serum colony stimulating ...19761081990
immunological responses to salmonella r antigens. the bacterial cell and the protein edestin as carriers for r oligosaccharide determinants.responses in rabbits to heat-killed salmonella minnesota r mutants (chemotypes ra, rc and re) were heterogeneous with respect to the amounts and specific haemagglutinin activities (shaa) of igm and igg antibodies produced to each mutant. amounts of antibodies in igm and igg fractions of sera were determined by quantitative precipitation. for comparison, antibodies were also isolated using an r oligosaccharide-specific immunoadsorbent and quantitated spectrophotometrically. shaa (haemagglutinatin ...197549297
envelope proteins in salmonella minnesota mutants.envelope proteins of one smooth (s) strain and seven rough (r) mutants of salmonella minnesota were examined by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. all strains gave similar band patterns although some consistent differences were detected. a major polypeptide band at 54k, which coincided with the flagellar component, was more prominent in s, ra and rb than in the rc, rd and re chemotypes. the latter strains, however, showed more prominent bands at 48, 19 and 18k. the stage ...19751151343
structural and genetic basis of the in vivo immune response to tnp-lps.tnp-lipopolysaccharide (tnp-lps) is a potent t-independent antigen in vivo, inducing a tnp-pfc response in t-depleted animals. the structural integrity of the lipid a-kdo portion of the lps carrier molecule appears to be required since the haptenated lps from salmonella minnesota re595 is immunogenic whereas the haptenated derivative of base hydrolyzed lps is not. the immune response is not associated with any of the common histocompatiblity types, but does depend on the ability of the host stra ...19751100725
functional role of antibody against "core" glycolipid of enterobacteriaceae.antibodies against the "core" glycolipid of enterobacteriaceae (2-keto, 3-deoxyoctonate-lipid a) have been associated with protection against the sequelae of gram-negative rod bacteremia. to investigate the nature of this protection, dogs and rabbits were immunized with purified glycolipid prepared by phenol-chloroform-petroleum ether extraction of the "re" mutant of salmonella minnesota 595 and opsonophagocytic and bactericidal tests were carried out using lapine peritoneal granulocytes and ser ...19751099119
"core" glycolipid of enterobacteriaceae: immunofluorescent detection of antigen and antibody.the re chemotype mutant of salmonella minnesota r595 has a cell-wall glycolipid composed principally of 2-keto, 3 deoxyoctonate and lipid a, which is an antigen widely shared by enterobacteriaceae. high-titered antiserum against this antigen can be conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate for direct detection of this antigen in heterologous bacteria and staining of bacteria in tissue. alternatively, the indirect immunofluorescence technique can be used for antigen detection on bacterial surfac ...1975807915
reactivity of lipopolysaccharides from various salmonella sr and r chemotypes ra-re mutants with concanavalin a.lipopolysaccharides from different r mutants of salmonella minnesota and salmonella typhimurium belonging to chemotypes ra to re, as well as from three sr mutants of salmonella typhimurium were selected for a study of their precipitability with concanavalin a. predictions as to the outcome of the reaction could be made since both the chemical structure of the salmonella r lipopolysaccharides and structural requirements for a positive reaction with concanavalin a are well established. precipitati ...1975766503
relation of structure to function in bacterial endotoxins. viii. biological activities in a polysaccharide-rich fraction.this is the first report describing in vivo biologic activities elicited by a non-toxic, polysaccharide-rich, water soluble fraction obtained by partial acidic hydrolysis from endotoxic lipopolysaccharide. the two activities present in this preparation were a) mouse bone marrow cell colony formation stimulation (csf) and b) protection of mice against lethal irradiation. with polysaccharide-deficient rough mutants of salmonella minnesota, the csf-inducing activity could be restricted to the "core ...1975239055
blocking of bacteriophages phi w and phi 5 with lipopolysaccharides from escherichia coli k-12 mutants.in the preceding paper we presented a formula for the composition of lipopolysaccharides (lps) from escherichia coli k-12. this formula contains four regions defined from analyses of lps from four key strains, the parent and mutants which had lost one, two, or three regions of their carbohydrates. support for the formula was derived from the susceptibility of the key mutants to several bacteriophages. one of these, phage phi w, was found specific for strains which had lost region 4. in this pape ...19751089629
effect of lipopolysaccharide and lipid a on mouse liver pyruvate kinase activity.several investigators have reported lipid a as the biologically active unit in the lipopolysaccharide (lps) molecule. to determine if lipid a was responsible for the reported increases in pyruvate kinase, mice were injected with endotoxin from salmonella typhimurium sr-11, the re mutant of salmonella minnesota r 595, and lipid a-bovine serum albumin conjugate. the livers were homogenized and the activity of pyruvate kinase was measured. similar increases in enzyme were obtained with all three pr ...19751104489
effect of core lipopolysaccharides from salmonella minnesota r mutants on the survival times of mice bearing ehrlich tumor.injection of a homologous series of bacterial core lipopolysaccharides obtained from salmonella minnesota r mutants to ehrlich solid tumor-beating mice results in an increase of survival times of treated animals. lower chain length favors greater antitumor activity. oligosaccharides and polysaccharides derived from lipopolysaccharides were found to be ineffective in increasing survial time of tumore-bearing mice. smaller-sugar-chain-length core lipopolysaccharides were found to be better adjuvan ...19751116126
biological activity of phthalated endotoxin.glycolipid (gl) was extracted from a heptoseless mutant of salmonella minnesota by a mixture of phenol, chloroform, and petroleum ether. the gl was subjected to treatment with either acetic anhydride or phthalic anhydride; a portion of the gl was untreated. both of the chemically treated preparations as well as the parent gl were examined for biological activity in the following systems: mouse lethality assays, rabbit pyrogenicity assays, and rabbit skin assays. the results of these studies indi ...19751182609
collagenase production by endotoxin-activated macrophages.peritoneal exudate macrophages, when exposed to bacterial lipopolysaccharide in culture, were found to produce collagenase (ec 3.4.24.3). this enzyme was not detected in extracts of the macrophages or in media from nonstimulated macrophage cultures. lipidcontaining fractions of the lipopolysaccharide, including a glycolipid from the rough mutant of salmonella minnesota (r595) and lipid a, were potent stimulators of collagenase production. the lipid-free polysaccharide fraction had no effect. cyc ...19744372628
protection against gram-negative infections with antiserum to lipid a from salmonella minnesota r595.the ability of antisera to lipid a, induced in rabbits by immunization with lipid a complexed to various carriers, to protect mice against gram-negative infection and to inhibit the fluid loss caused by an enteropathogenic strain of escherichia coli in the piglet ligated gut was investigated. no significant protection was obtained in either case, although passive hemolysis and quantitative precipitation tests showed the presence of antilipid a antibodies in the sera. fluorescent antibody studies ...19744611919
genetic analysis of salmonella minnesota r mutants with defects in the biosynthesis of the lipopolysaccharide core.a set of r (rough) mutants, in which the synthesis of the cell wall lipopolysaccharide is defective, were analyzed genetically. these same salmonella minnesota mutants have been used extensively in biochemical studies. by combining the information from all these studies, we obtained a complete genetic description of many of these mutants. most of them turned out to be double rfe rfa mutants in which the rfe mutation (close to ilv) accounts for inability to synthesize o-specific structures and th ...19744852148
participation of lipopolysaccharide genes in the determination of the enterobacterial common antigen: analysis of r mutants of salmonella minnesota.a series of r (rough) salmonella minnesota mutants with rfb, rfe, and rfa mutations leading to various defects in the biosynthesis of cell wall lipopolysaccharide was analyzed as to their enterobacterial common antigen (ca) content. all mutants that had functional rfe genes were ca(+) as is the wild-type parent. this includes mutants with the most defective lipopolysaccharide core types, demonstrating that core structures are not a necessary part of ca. all rfe(-) mutants (complete lipopolysacch ...19744137100
comparison of the chemical structure and biological activities of the glycolipids of salmonella minnesota r595 and salmonella typhimurium sl1102.it has been assumed in the past that the lipid moieties of endotoxic lipopolysaccharides are quite similar if not identical. this has been tested in the reported work here, where the chemical composition and biological activities of the glycolipids of two heptoseless re mutants, salmonella minnesota r595 and salmonella typhimurium sl1102, have been studied and compared. the two glycolipids, extracted with chloroform-methanol (4:1), showed identical thin-layer chromatographic patterns. the molar ...19744139122
enhanced toxicity for mice of 6-mercaptopurine with bacterial endotoxin.the toxicity of 6-mercaptopurine was potentiated by 2 mg of either escherichia coli 026:b6 b endotoxin or salmonella typhosa 0901 w endotoxin per kg. nonlethal doses of heat-killed, gram-negative bacteria were also capable of potentiating the lethality of 6-mercaptopurine (6-mp). salmonella minnesota s, the wild-type strain, and s. minnesota re 595, a mutant containing only the lipid a and 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonate moiety of the endotoxin molecule, exhibited the same capability to enhance the toxic ...197415825398
