Abstract
Two batches each of diphtheria -- tetanus -- acellular pertussis vaccine (DTaP) and that combined with inactivated polio vaccine purchased from the U.S.A., European and Asian markets were compared with Japanese DTaPs by Japanese control tests for DTaP and laboratory models for local reaction. All the imported vaccines met Japanese criteria for toxicities of acellular pertussis vaccine except for the toxicity to mouse weight gain (body weight decreasing (BWD) toxicity). When injecting into mouse footpad, rabbit back skin and mouse quadriceps muscle, the imported vaccines induced much severer inflammation and tissue injury comparing to Japanese DTaPs irrespective of animal species, injection site and injection volume suggesting that these vaccines may induce stronger local reactogenicity.

Abstract
The effects of highly purified components of Bordetella pertussis, that is pertussis toxin (PT) and filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA), and of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were studied in the active mouse weight gain test (MWGT). The PT when given alone or with other components in various combinations caused weight losses and deaths 2-3 days after inoculation but FHA was not toxic in the MWGT. When FHA was given with PT, the toxic effect of PT was reduced. The LPS caused weight losses at 24 h which decreased when LPS was given with PT. The toxic effects of PT as indicated by late deaths and late weight losses or failure to gain weight continued until 14 days after inoculation. The various components had similar effects on mouse weight gain in both LACA and NIH strains of mice. The doses of PT used in the MWGT caused marked leucocytosis but FHA and LPS did not. No agglutinins appeared in the sera of mice inoculated with various purified components. The components were thus pure and did not contain agglutinogens.

Abstract
To improve the whole-cell pertussis vaccine we have studied the inactivation of the biological properties characteristic of Bordetella pertussis phase I bacteria, i.e. histamine-sensitizing, lymphocytosis-promoting and mouse protective activities, by treating a concentrated bacterial suspension with various concentrations of glutaraldehyde. Under the experimental conditions, treatment with 10 mM glutaraldehyde at 37 degrees C for 30 min resulted in a marked reduction of the toxic activities without grossly diminishing the protective potency. Further tests were performed on the stability of the protective potency, on the agglutinin production in mice, and on the freedom from abnormal toxicity in guinea-pigs.

Abstract
The effects of highly purified preparations of three Bordetella pertussis components--pertussis toxin (PT), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA)--were examined in the mouse weight gain test, a toxicity test for pertussis vaccine. When these components were administered alone, PT enhanced initial weight gains of the mice, LPS produced an initial weight loss and FHA had no detectable effect on the weights of the mice. However, testing the components in combinations revealed that the effect of PT and LPS together was not simply the sum of their individual effects. This combination generally produced lower weights than LPS alone, particularly in the later stages of the test.

Abstract
A synthetic compound (506), beta (1-6) D-glucosamine disaccharide 1,4'-bisphosphate, which is acylated at 2'-amino and 3'-hydroxyl groups with (R)-3-dodecanoyloxytetradecanoyl and (R)-3-tetradecanoyloxytetradecanoyl groups, respectively, and has (R)-3-hydroxytetradecanoyl groups at 2-amino and 3-hydroxyl groups, exhibited full endotoxic activities identical to or sometimes stronger than those of a reference lipid A from an Escherichia coli Re-mutant (strain F515). Endotoxic activities tested include pyrogenicity and leukopenia-inducing activity in rabbits, body weight-decreasing toxicity in normal mice, lethal toxicity in galactosamine-sensitized mice and chicken embryos, and the preparation and provocation of the local Shwartzman reaction in rabbits. Compound 406, a synthetic counterpart of a biosynthetic precursor of lipid A molecule, showed by contrast only weak activities in all of the above assay systems except for the lethality in galactosamine-loaded mice. This finding strongly suggests that the presence of acyloxyacyl groups at the C-2' and C-3' positions of the disaccharide backbone is one of the most important determinant structures of the lipid A molecule for exhibition of strong biological activities characteristic of lipopolysaccharide and its lipid A moiety. The activities of the corresponding 4'-monophosphate (compound 504) and 1-monophosphate (505) analogs were considerably less than those of the parent molecule 506 and the reference F515 lipid A. Regarding other biological activities, not only compound 506 but also compounds 504, 505, and 406 showed definite activities, sometimes comparable to those of F515 lipid A and other reference natural products. These are the activation of Tachypleus tridentatus amoebocyte clotting enzyme cascade and human complement via the classical pathway, mitogenic and polyclonal B-cell activation of murine splenocytes, stimulation of peritoneal macrophages in a guinea pig, enhancement of migration of human blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and induction of a serum factor that is cytostatic and cytocidal to L-929 cells in Mycobacterium bovis BCG-primed mice. Relative potencies of test synthetic compounds depended on the assay systems and varied from one system to another. Dephospho-compound 503 lacked most of the biological activities that were definitely observed with phosphorylated compounds, probably because of its insolubility. This study demonstrates the successful chemical synthesis of an E. coli-type lipid A.

Abstract
A method has been developed for quantitative determination of the early appearing mouse paw swelling activity of pertussis vaccine. Mice were inoculated with the vaccine into the left hind paws. The difference in the thicknesses between the inoculated and the uninoculated paws was taken as the swelling response in 16 hr after inoculation. It was transformed into logarithm as a response metameter. A linear log dose-log response regression line was obtained over a relatively wide range of doses of the vaccine. No deviation from parallelism was significant among the regression lines of different vaccines tested. The swelling activities relative to that of a reference vaccine of diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus combined (DPT) vaccines recently produced in Japan were determined. The relative activities ranged from 0.6 to 2.5, being twice the mean width of the 95% confidence interval of the relative activity. Further experiments showed that the activity significantly correlated with endotoxin and histamine-sensitizing factor (HSF) but not with lymphocytosis-promoting factor (LPF). In addition, the multiple regression analysis of such relationship suggested that the swelling activity is accounted for by the combined action of endotoxin and HSF. A model experiment with a mixture of the two toxins supported this conclusion.

Abstract
The enhancing effect of pre-administration of lead acetate on the body-weight decrease due to endotoxin was studied in mice for the purpose of developing a method for determination of minute amounts of endotoxin. By adoption of the body-weight ratio on the first day after endotoxin administration (BWR1) as a response, the linear regression lines of the dose-response were demonstrated over a wide range of log doses of several different endotoxin preparations tested. By use of these linear regression equations experimentally obtained, the minimum detectable dose was calculated. The minimum detectable dose was defined as a dose of an endotoxin preparation producing a mean body-weight response statistically distinguishable from that of the control. The doses obtained were mostly in nanogram order. The magnitude of the enhancement brought about by the lead treatment was estimated at about 40 to 100 times.

Abstract
Unadsorbed, regular production pertussis vaccine was treated with polymyxin B sulphate at concentrations of 25, 50 and 100 microgram/ml. The toxic activity of treated and untreated vaccines was compared using both the limulus amoebocyte lysate test and the mouse-weight-gain test. Protective efficacy was also assessed by the mouse protection test. No discernible effect on either toxicity or efficacy of the pertussis vaccine was observed. When the vaccine was treated with 5000 microgram/ml of polymyxin, endotoxic activity assessed by the limulus lysate test appeared to be abolished.

Abstract
The body weight-decreasing effect of sublethal doses of endotoxin was enhanced in mice administered with such an amount of lead acetate that had no effect by itself on body weight. The enhancing effects of administration of lead acetate prior to, simultaneously with and after endotoxin administration were analyzed and compared by statistical methods. Linear dose-response relation between logarithmic doses of endotoxin and body weight-decreasing responses was obtained over a wide range of endotoxin doses with a constant dose of lead acetate. The non-parallelism between two dose-response lines obtained in lead acetate-treated and control mice was not denied. The relation of the two lines indicated that the more minute the dose of endotoxin, the more intense the enhancing effect of lead acetate appearing in the treated mice within certain limits of minute doses of endotoxin. These results were common in the three administration methods of lead acetate and can be applied to detection of minute doses of endotoxin. It was suggested that the pre-administration method of lead acetate was more suitable for detection of endotoxin than the other methods.

Abstract
The combined diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus and combined diphtheria-pertussis vaccines, of which the contents of endotoxin, LPF and HSF were reported in the previous paper, have been tested for the respective potencies of pertussis, diphtheria and tetanus components. In order to obtain some information concerning possible adjuvanticities of the toxic components of pertussis cells, relationship between respective toxic activities and the potencies of the respective antigenic components were tested by applying the multiple regression analyses. The results showed that the effects of the toxic components were fairly complicated. Within the ranges of contents of the respective toxic components of the vaccines used in the present experiment, LPF appeared to enhance all the three potencies as the content increased, while the effects of endotoxin and HSF were either enhancing or suppressive depending on the antigenic components.

Abstract
The amounts of endotoxin, histamine-sensitizing factor and lymphocytosis-promoting factor contained in combined diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus and combined diphteria-pertussis vaccines recently produced in Japan were determined and the relationships among them were statistically analyzed. The estimated values in histamine-sensitizing units (HSU) and lymphocytosispromoting units (LPU) per human dose ranged from 0.3 to 6 and from 0.4 to 5, respectively. A fairly wide range of endotoxin contents, which were expressed in body weight-decreasing units (BWDU), was also demonstrated. All the ranges were larger than those expected from experimental error. There was a positive correlation between the HSU and LPU values although the individual HSU-LPU ratios ranged from 0.3 to 3, but the range was markedly larger than the width of the 95% confidence interval of the mean ratio. Negative correlation between BWDU and LPU was also significant, probably because of the relatively large number degrees of freedom, though the coefficient was fairly small; while that between BWDU and HSU was not significant. The frequency distribution of individual values of HSU was divided into two lognormal distributions. With one of the two groups obtained by this subdivision, a distinct positive correlation bewteen HSU and LPU was demonstrated, but with the other group there was little correlation. Some differences between the two groups were also found in the correlations between BWDU and the other two variates. No factors responsible for the separation of the groups have yet been found.

Abstract
The effect of bacterial endotoxin on the change in peripheral leukocyte population in mice due to the lymphocytosis-promoting factor (LPF) was investigated. Endotoxin affected not only the total leukocyte count but also the leukocyte proportions at any observation time. Both the coefficient and the intercept of regression of the leukocytic response on dose of LPF were modified by endotoxin. Therefore, in a valid biological assay for LPF using the peripheral leukocyte count as a response, a common reference preparation available for any test materials, irrespective of presence or absence of endotoxin, will be impracticable. Two reference preparations were tentatively established, one being a vaccine and the other an LPF preparation containing little endotoxin. A unitage of LP activity was assigned to each reference preparation. The results also showed that an LPF material to be tested for its possible effects on the lymphatic tissues or the reticuloendothelial system should be free from endotoxin.

Abstract
Intraperitoneal or intravenous inoculation of live or inactivated influenza virus induced two characteristic responses of the peripheral leukocytes in mice, an early appearing leukopenic response and late appearing lymphopenia. The former response usually developed and subsided within several hours, though the change in leukocyte population was fairly complicated depending upon the activity of the inoculated material, while the latter began several hours after inoculation and reached its minimum level in 10 to 20 hr. The agent responsible for the former may be virus pyrogen, while the latter seems to be caused by some substance(s) other than that. The early appearing leukopenic response was similar to that due to bacterial endotoxin in respect to the characteristic pattern of the change in peripheral leukocyte population, though it was relatively easy to distinguish one from the other by the length of the latent period and by the heat stability of the causative agent. Live or inactivated influenza virus causing the early appearing leukopenic response was found also to have the mouse body weight-decreasing toxicity. The significance of these findings in the laboratory control test of influenza vaccine for untoward reactions often observed in human inoculated with some inactivated influenza vaccines was discussed. The possible roles of the two agents, virus pyrogen and endotoxin, in the febrile response were mentioned.
