Abstract
There is evidence that T-lymphocytes are not directly involved in the anti-LPS humoral immune response (1, 2, 3,) However it has been shown that LPS has some biological effects on T-cell functions both in vitro (4, 5) and in vivo (6–10). The demonstration that LPS influences some T-cell functions requires further investigation.
Supported in part by a research contract form CNR (Rome, Italtaly) and by a CNEN-Euratom Association Contract, Publication n° 1208 of the Euratom Biology Division.
