Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from gram-negative microorganisms is a potent activator of macrophages. LPS induces macrophages to secrete immunoregulatory substances including interleukin 1 (IL 1), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interferon, colony stimulating factors (CSFs) and, prostaglandins. Furthermore LPS activates tumor cytotoxicity of macrophages by itself or in combination with interferon.
