Immunostimulating cell surface substance from Staphylococcus epidermidis strain ATCC-31432 prevents metastatic lung colonization in Balb/c-mice

Abstract: The antineoplastic activity of cell surface substance from Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC-31432 (CSS-subfraction 2) in mice and its influence on the activation of human leucocytes was studied. After in vitro incubation with CSS-subfraction 2, human polymorphonuclear leucocytes were evidently stimulated. In vivo (Balb/c-mice) intraperitoneal application of subfraction 2 of CSS induced a considerable splenomegaly and greatly increased IgM levels indicating a strong immuno-stimulating activity. In order to evalu… Show more
