Abstract

Lipid A has been found to be an inducer of IL-1 with similar potency as LPS. Partial structures of lipid A or core oligosaccharides are less active or not active at all. We propose that lipid A is the structure responsible for induction of immunostimulatory or immunoregulatory properties of LPS.
