Hydrogenated oil, administered to Listeria monocytogenes-infected mice, produced a significant increase in peritoneal cells of coconut oil-fed mice and a reduction of bacterial recovery from the spleen . Oil, administered to mice injected with a nonlethal dose of Escherichia coli at a dose of 20% by weight for 5 weeks, produced a decrease of peak plasma tumor necrosis factor (TNE)-a, interleukin (IL)-l P, and lL-6 concentrations. Peak plasma IL-10 concentrations were higher in the coconut-fed group than in those fed the other diets, coconut oil diminished production of proinflammatory cytokines in vivo . ...

In contrast to the above data Listeria monocytogenes infection of J774 cells shows a different pattern of bacterial protein synthesis. None of the thirty-two proteins observed for intracellular bacteria are induced by typical in vitro stress conditions, including heat shock and oxidative stress (Hanawa et al, 1995). This observation would be consistent with the intracellular bacteria rapidly migrating from the phagosome to the cytoplasm during intracellular growth.
