BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION <br><br>
The present invention is directed to the use of a refined detoxified endotoxin (RDE) product as a potent immunostimulator and also as an adjuvant. The RDE used in the present invention is characterized as having no detectable 2-keto-3-deoxyoctano8te, between about 350 and 475 nmoles/mg of phosphorus and between about 1700 and 2000 nmoles/mg of fatty acids. Where used herein; <br><br>
"adjuvant" means a substance which is capable of increasing specific antibody formation against an antigen, <br><br>
"adjuvant response" means the response engendered by an adjuvant, being the stimulation of higher specific antibody titers against an antigen than are achieved when the antigen is administered alone, and <br><br>
"effective adjuvant response" means a response in which the specific antibody titers are substantially higher than those attained without adjuvant. <br><br>
Endotoxic extracts obtained from Enterobacteriaciae including parent organisms and mutants are known. These extracts have been used for immunotherapy of various immunogenic tumors (see Peptides as Requirement for Immunotherapy of the Guinea-Pig Line-10 Tumor with Endotoxins; Ribi, et al, Cancer Immunol. Immunother., Vol. 7, pgs. 43-58 (1979) incorporated herein by reference]. However, the endotoxin extracts are known to be highly toxic and, therefore, of limited use in the treatment of cancerous tumors. Efforts have been made to "detoxify" the endotoxins while retaining its tumor regressive capacity. As shown, in Ribi, et al, supra, chemical procedures known to "detoxify" endotoxins while retaining adjuvanticity, such as succinylation and phthalylation resulted in both loss of endotoxicity and tumor regressive potency. Therefore, prior ——————————————— <br><br>

art attempts to obtain a refined detoxified endotoxin product have thus far riot been successful. <br><br>
Endotoxin extracts of the type used as a starting material to produce the RDE used in the present invention may be obtained from any Enterobacteriaciae including parent organisms and mutants. By way of example, the following genera ace illustrative of the type of microorganisms that may be used: <br><br>
Salmonella, Shigella, Escher ichia, Brucella, Bordetella. Citrobacter, Pseudomonas, Pasturella, Neisseria. Proteus, Klebsiella, and Setratia. <br><br>
The following species are typically employed: <br><br>
S.minnesota, 5.typhimur ium, B.pertussis, B.abortus. S.enteritidis, B.coli, S.typhi, S.maicescens, S.typhosa, Shigella flexni, and 5.abortus equi. <br><br>
The endotoxic extracts used as a starting material may be prepared by one of several known methods [see, for example, Webster, M.E., Sagin, J.F., Landy, M., and Johnson, A.G., J. Immunol. 1955, 744 , 55; Westphal, 0. , Luderitz, O. , and Bister, F., Z. Naturforsch, 76 148 (1952); Westphal, O. , Pyrogens, Polysaccharides in Biology, Tr. Second Macy Conference (George F.

Biochem. 9_, 245 (1969); Chen, C.H., Johnson, A.G., Kasai, N., Key, B.A., Levin, J., Nowotny, A., J. Infect. Pis. <br><br>

A most suitable method of obtaining the endotoxic extract is that disclosed by Chen, et al; namely, methanol-chloroform precipitation. <br><br>
The methanol-chloroform precipitate (MCP) is reacted with an organic or inorganic acid and then lyophilized to produce a hydrolyzsd etude lipid A with reduced toxicity and pyrogenicity as compared with the starting endotoxin material. The resulting product is then treated with a solvent which is capable of specifically dissolving fatty acids and other impurities without dissolving the crude lipid A. A suitable solvent for this purpose is acetone. The phosphate content of the detoxified, refined lipid A is about one-half that observed for the toxic counterpart suggesting that the phosphate content is related to the toxic effects of endotoxins. <br><br>
Suitable inorganic acids used to react with MCP are hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid and the suitable organic acids are toluene sulfonic acid or trichloroacetic acid. The reaction may be suitably conducted at a temperature between about 90° and 130°C. for a time sufficient to complete hydrolysis usually between about 15 and 60 minutes. <br><br>
The preparation of crude detoxified endotoxin may also be accomplished by reacting the starting material with the selected acid in the presence of an organic solvent such as chloroform, methanol, and ethanol or combinations thereof. <br><br>
The resulting cru^e lipid A is dissolved in acetone which is particularly suited to remove the fatty acid components. The solvent is then removed to produce crude detoxified endotoxin. <br><br>
The crude detoxified endotoxin is then dissolved in a solvent and passed through a suitable chromatographic column such as, for example, a molecular exclusion chromatographic column, to separate the RDE fractions which are then combined after removal of the solvent. In one embodiment, the crude detoxified endotoxin solution is passed through a Sephadex column in the presence of a solvent such as chloroform, methanol, acetone, pyridine, ether or acetic acid or combinations thereof. The pressure of the column may vary but is typically in the range of between about atmospheric and 100 lbs/in and the flow rate is between about 0.1 and 10 ml/min. <br><br>
Alternatively, the crude detoxified endotoxin solution is passed through a DEAE-cellulose column under the same pressure conditions as mentioned above for the Sephadex column. The flow rate may be maintained between about 2 and 15 ml/min. The solvents used are also the same as used for the Sephadex column although water and/ot diethylamine can be added <br><br>
to all mixtures at a concent ration of up to about 1%. <br><br>
Other methods of producing RDE from crude detoxified endotoxin include passing the solution through a low pressure silica-gel 60 column having a particle size of between about 15 and 63 microns and using a suitable solvent such as chloroform, methanol, water or ammonium hydroxide. The preferred volume ratio of the aforementioned solvent mixture is about 50:25:4:2. <br><br>
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to employ a refined detoxified endotoxin product which can be effectively used to stimulate the immune system of a warm blooded animal. Specifically, RDE can be used as a B-cell mitogen, to stimulate the production of lymphokines, stimulate macrophages, and as an adjuvant which enhances the immune response of a warm blooded animal. <br><br>
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION <br><br>
The present invention is directed to the use of refined detoxified endotoxin (RDE) as a stimulant of the immune system. The RDE used in this invention has no detectable 2-keto-3-deoxyoctanoate, between about 350 arid 475 nmoles/mg of phosphorus and between about 1700 and 2000 nmoles/mg of fatty acids. <br><br>
The RDE of the present invention can be used as a stimulant of the immune response in warm blooded aminals against antigens such as microbacterial and fungal cells, microbacterial cell fragments, viruses, virus sub units <br><br>
synthetic peptides which mimic cellular and viral sub units. Specific antigens which are affected by the immune response augmented by the administration of RDE include cryptococcus neoformans Candida spp., chlamydia spp., legionella spp. Clostridia, hepatitis meningitis, streptococus spp, staphy-lococus spp., Klebsiella spp., herpes virus, brucella spp., borditella spp., salmonella spp., shigella spp., camphylobacter spp, yersinia spp., pasturella spp., francisella spp., listeria spp., and the like. <br><br>
The RDE used in the present invention exhibits B-cell mitogenicity that is, RDE when administered to a warm blooded animal under a suitable dosage regimen activates B-lymphocytes which are the cells responsible for the manufacture of antibodies. <br><br>
ASSAYS <br><br>
(1) B CELL MITOGENICITY - RDE is characterized by its ability to activate B lymphocytes which are the cells responsible for the manufacture of antibodies, as follows: <br><br>

1x10 cells/ml of each strain cultured with or without mitogens in 0.2 of RPM1-1640 (5% FCS) in 96 well microtiter plates. 1 ucl H-Thymidine was add^d to each well the last 18 hours of a 48-hour incubation and H-iricorpor atiori was measured by standard scintillation techniques *CPM - counts per minute **SI-stimulation index <br><br>
(2) INTERLEUKIN I PRODUCTION <br><br>
The RDE can be used to stimulate the production of lymphokines released by macrophages. Iriterleukin-I is a soluble immunoregulator released by macrophages which is responsible for the activation of lymphocytes at the site of an infection. Interleukin-I plays a critical role as an amplifier of the immune response. <br><br>
Murine macrophages were adhered to microtiter plates (1 X 106/well), each determination was mads in triplicate. The first wells received 1 ml. of a 50 ^jg/ml solution of standard endotoxin produced in accordance with the procedure described in the aforesaid co-pending application. I ml. of a 50yug/ml solution of RDE in accordance with the present invention was added to the second set of wells. Each agent was solubilized in <br><br>

M 199 medium with 5% FCS (fetal calf serum) 1 ml. M 199 medium with 5% FCS was added to the third set of wells to serve as a control. <br><br>
The plates were incubated .at 37°C for 20 hours. The supernatant was removed and diluted to obtain a solution having a 1:10 ratio of supernatant to distilled water. The supernatant was tested for interleukin-I production by the method of Gery, et al. Cellular Immun. 64, 293 (1981). <br><br>
The cells remaining after removal of the supernatant were lysed using 0.1% Triton X - 100. The resulting solution was diluted with RPMI 1640 medium with 5% fetal calf serum at a 1:10 dilution ratio. <br><br>
The diluted solution was tested for Interleukin-I production by measuring art augmentation of PHA inducted <br><br>

(3) MACROPHAGE ACTIVATION <br><br>
RDE of the present invention also stimulates macrophages as measured by the ability of macrophages to phagocytize (engulf) fluorescent beads. <br><br>
1 X ]0® peritoneal exudate cells were mixed with 5 jilt of a solution of a test material containing standard endotoxin, RDE of the present invention and saline as a control to respectively form three test solutions. Each of the solutions <br><br>

contained 1 jjg of the t3St material and 20 p Cot a fluorescent bead suspension. The test solutions were placed on individual microscope slides arid then incubated for 90 minutes at 37°C. <br><br>
Aft°r incubation, the slides were observed under a fluorescent microscope. By visual observation, the number of cells which phagocytosed the fluorescent beads was determined as well as the number of beads/cell. <br><br>
The phagocytic index was calculated in accordance with the formula: <br><br>
PHAGOCYTIC INDEX = % cells phagocytosing x number of beads/100 cells <br><br>

(4) ADJUVANT ACTIVITY <br><br>
To further establish the use of RDE as a stimulatoc of the immune system of warm blooded animals, RDE was tested for adjuvanticity as determined by its ability to augment the immune response to sheep red blood cells (SRBC) by measuring the ability of antibodies to lyse the sheep red blood cells. <br><br>
Three test materials were prepared. Each contained 1x10^ amount of SRBC. Test material #2 further contained 20 megs, of standard endotoxin + SRBC while test material #3 contained 20 megs, of RDE in accordance with the present invention + SRBC. <br><br>
Test materials were injected interperitoneally into strain BALB/C mice. After 4-5 days, the test animals were sacrificed and the spleens removed and ground in a tissue grinder. A standard cell suspension of each spleen was made using a haemocytometer and each of Lhe above suspensions were placed on slides along with the target SRBC, media, arid agar. <br><br>
The slides were incubated for 2 hours at 37°C and Guinea Pig sera was added as a complement source to each of the slides followed by incubation for 30 minutes at 37°C. <br><br>
Thereafter, the slides were examined to determine the quantity of plaque forming cells, which are areas in which antibodies destroyed the SRBC cells with the aid of the complement found in the Guinea Pig sera. <br><br>
The results are shown in Table III. <br><br>

As can be seen from Table III, the number of plague forming cells resulting from the use of RDE compared with standard endotoxin was significantly higher which establishes that RDE is a potent adjuvant. <br><br>
The RDE as used in the present invention may be administered in combination with a pharmaceutical^ acceptable medium such as saline or an oil-droplat emulsion. The aforesaid composition may be stabilized as, for example, by a lyophilization procedure and then reconstituted without loss of potency. <br><br>
As described above, the composition for treatment of warm blooded animals and humans may be used in the form of an oil droplet emulsion. The amount of oil used is in the range of between about 0.5 and 3.0 percent by volume based on the total volume of the composition. It is preferred to use between about 0.75 and 1.5 percent by volume of the oil. Examples of suitable oils include light mineral oil, sgualane, 7-n-hexyloctadecane, Conoco superoil and Drakeol 6 VR mineral <br><br>

oil (produced by the Penrireco Company, Bulter, Pennsylvania). <br><br>
The homogenized oil containing mixture is then combined with a detergent which may optionally be dissolved in a saline solution prior to mixing. The amount of detergent is typically between about 0.02 arid 0.20 percent by volume and preferably between about 0.10 and 0,20 percent by volume based on the total volume of the composition. Any common detergent material may be used including Tween-80, arid Arlacel (produced by the Atlas Chemical Company). <br><br>
The mixture resulting from the addition of detergent is then homogenized to form a suspension which has a high percentage of oil droplets coated with RDE as determined by observation under a microscope. <br><br>
The amount of RDE in a single injection is between 5 and 500 jug, preferably between 10 and lOOjig (per total body weight of a 70 Kg human adult. <br><br>
1-3 injections are administered over a period of about 2 months. <br><br>
The RDE composition use-3 in the present invention exhibits significantly less pyrogenic activity than a composition containing standard endotoxin as evidenced by the following example. <br><br>
