Administration of group A streptococcal cell walls to rats induces an interleukin 2 deficiency

Intraperitoneal administration of group A streptococcal cell walls to Lewis rats induces a chronic arthritis, whereas the Fischer strain is resistant to the development of the lesion. Spleen cells from cell wall- treated rats (Lewis and Fischer) are deficient in the synthesis of IL- 2. Using an mAb...

description Intraperitoneal administration of group A streptococcal cell walls to Lewis rats induces a chronic arthritis, whereas the Fischer strain is resistant to the development of the lesion. Spleen cells from cell wall- treated rats (Lewis and Fischer) are deficient in the synthesis of IL- 2. Using an mAb directed against the rat IL-2-R, the present studies indicate that the expression of IL-2-R on spleens of cell wall-treated rats is normal. However, the addition of exogenous IL-2 to spleen cells cultured with Con A does not stimulate the mitogenic response.
