Abstract

We studied tolerogenic properties of new nonpyrogenic low-endotoxic complex preparation composed of Shigella sonnei carbohydrate biopolymers under D-galactosamine and direct experimental endotoxic shock models. Pretreatment with complex preparation (exopolysaccharide + lipopolysaccharide) S. sonnei protects mice (CBA × C57B1/6)F1 against lipopolysaccharide (E. coli O:55)-mediated death. We demonstrate correlation between increasing preimmunization dose of complex preparation with rate of survival and reduction of TNF-α serum level under a direct endotoxic shock model.
