Adsorbents as antiendotoxin agents in experimental colitis.
The intestinal mucosa protects the body from a large reservoir of intraluminal pathogenic bacteria and endotoxins. This mucosal barrier is disrupted by the inflammation and ulceration of inflammatory bowel disease and may permit the absorption of toxic bacterial products. Systemic endotoxaemia has been demonstrated in ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease and correlates with the extent and act...
متن کاملAntiendotoxin activity of cationic peptide antimicrobial agents.
The endotoxin from gram-negative bacteria consists of a molecule lipopolysaccharide (LPS) which can be shed by bacteria during antimicrobial therapy. A resulting syndrome, endotoxic shock, is a leading cause of death in the developed world. Thus, there is great interest in the development of antimicrobial agents which can reverse rather than promote sepsis, especially given the recent disappoin...

In the last decade, the dogma that no bacteria could grow in the acid milieu of the stomach has been destroyed by evidence that the infective agent, H. pylori, is responsible for gastric and duodenal disease. Studies on H. pylori infection suggest that some strains of intestinal bacteria may be responsible for intestinal ulceration and inflammation concomitant with inflammatory bowel diseases (...
متن کاملAngiogenesis blockade as a new therapeutic approach to experimental colitis.
BACKGROUND Neoangiogenesis is a critical component of chronic inflammatory disorders. Inhibition of angiogenesis is an effective treatment in animal models of inflammation, but has not been tested in experimental colitis. AIM To investigate the effect of ATN-161, an anti-angiogenic compound, on the course of experimental murine colitis. METHOD Interleukin 10-deficient (IL10(-/-)) mice and w...
متن کاملExperimental Study on Removal of Chromium by using Cow Dung as Low Cost Adsorbents
In apparent, the intension is removal of chromium using cow dung as low cost adsorbents from the industrial wastewater. Chromium (Cr) is one of the most toxic substances and is introduced into the environment through a variety of industrial activities. In order to remove the chromium from the contaminated water there are lot of methods available, even though they are not in natural way. In the ...
