Popis: Interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha) or tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) administered prior to infection with Salmonella typhimurium increases survival in mice that are Ityr, not in susceptible Lpsd or Itys mice. Combined IL-1 alpha and TNF-alpha pretreatment results in greater survival than that seen with either cytokine alone in Ityr mice. Treatment after infection with TNF-alpha and/or IL-1 alpha increases the mean time to death but not the survival fraction of Lpsd mice and was ineffective in either Ityr or Itys mice.
