Recent studies in mice have demonstrated that TNF plays a critical role in mediating the TCDD-induced enhanced inflammatory response to intraperitoneal (i.p.) sheep red blood cells. The current studies were designed to evaluate the effects of TCDD on TNF production by ex-vivo peritoneal cells and a peritoneal macrophage cell line (IC-21) stimulated with LPS. In support of the hypothesis that TCDD can act directly on the peritoneal macrophage to increase TNF production, following pretreatment with TCDD, both ex-vivo peritoneal cells and IC-21 cells produced increased levels of bioactive TNF when stimulated with LPS. Flow cytometric analyses of IC-21 cells indicate that TCDD exposure increases intracellular production and secretion of TNF but does not alter levels of membrane associated TNF.

D008070 Lipopolysaccharides Lipid-containing polysaccharides which are endotoxins and important group-specific antigens. They are often derived from the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria and induce immunoglobulin secretion. The lipopolysaccharide molecule consists of three parts: LIPID A, core polysaccharide, and O-specific chains (O ANTIGENS). When derived from Escherichia coli, lipopolysaccharides serve as polyclonal B-cell mitogens commonly used in laboratory immunology. (From Dorland, 28th ed) Lipopolysaccharide,Lipoglycans
