Armadillo lepromin activates human lymphocytes from normal donors to release leucocyte inhibiting factor. The above activity was expressed optimally when leucocytes were incubated with lepromin at 37 degrees C, and only partially when incubation was carried out at 30 degrees C or at 35 degrees C. The possible mechanism of the in vitro production of lymphokine from lymphocytes stimulated by armadillo lepromin is discussed.
