Abstract:  The effect of growth hormone (GH) on the release of IL-1alpha and IFN-gamma from murine splenocytes was investigated. Their release from splenocytes activated by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 0.5 microg/ml was increased by c. 65% in the presence of GH 100 pg/ml. With splenocytes activated by S. Typhimurium porins 5 microg/ml, GH increased the production of both IL-1alpha and IFN-gamma by c. 56%. Polymyxin treatment abolished the cytokine-releasing activity of LPS but had no effect on the activity of the porin preparation.

 This paper is part of a set of at least 14 papers with shared authors (always including one with the last name Galdiero), spanning 1995-2008, that all appear to show the same gels. The porin gels appear to all represent the same sample (Salmonella typhimurium porins), but the LPS gels represent Salmonella, Pasteurella multocida, or Pasteurella haemolytica). Sometimes fewer or more lanes are visible, and in each paper the data are represented as novel.
