Activation of Neutrophils by Tumour Necrosis Factor and Fatty Acids
In inflammatory reactions there are complex interactions of protein mediators (cytokines) and mediators derived from lipids. An important event in inflammation is superoxide production, in relation to microbicidal activity as well as tissue damage. We have studied interactions of lipid mediators with a cytokine mediator tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) in stimulating superoxide production by h...
متن کاملPentoxifylline and tumour necrosis factor-induced
Acute Gram-negative bacterial infections evoke characteristic pathophysiological responses, including changes in white blood cell counts, fever, haemodynamic disorders, and various coagulatory disturbances, which may result in respiratory distress syndrome, multiorgan failure and irreversible shock. It is generally accepted that endotoxins, the lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of Gramnegative bacteria...

متن کاملSignal transduction by tumour necrosis factor and tumour necrosis factor related ligands and their receptors.
Many biological functions are regulated through interactions of extracellular molecules with their cognate cell surface receptors. The transduction of these signals by their receptors at the plasma membrane to the intracellular machinery results in such cellular activities as gene activation, protein phosphorylation, cell proliferation, and cell destruction. Though the kinetics of these activit...
متن کاملBowel Necrosis Induced by Tumor Necrosis Factor
We have developed a rat model of ischemic bowel necrosis associated with shock by injection of platelet-activating factor (PAF) or a combination of PAF and endotoxin. Recent investigations have shown that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) also induces shock and necrosis of the gastrointestinal tract. The morphological changes of TNF-induced bowel lesions are indistinguishable from those caused by PAF...
