Abstract

Murine peritoneal macrophages were preincubated with amphotericin B (AMPH) and were then stimulated with bacterial lipopolysaccharide or streptococcal preparation (OK432). These macrophages produced a large amount of tumor necrosis factor. When administered to mice, the priming activity of amphotericin B for tumor necrosis factor production in vivo was also observed.
