Immunosuppression induced in vivo by 15 hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15 HETE)
We have investigated the in vivo effects of 15 HETE on C57Bl/6 (H-2b) mice injected IP daily with this product. After that the 15 HETE treated animals and the controls were challenged in vivo by DBA/2 (H-2d) cells. Splenocytes from 15 HETE injected animals were either stimulated in vitro by lectins or cocultivated with DBA/2 irradiated splenocytes. It was observed that the response of splenocytes from in vivo treated animals is weaker than the control's response. The data suggest that 15 HETE induce the generation of suppressor cells.
