Endotoxin induced damage to the cochlea in guinea pigs.
An apparently unique form of cochlear damage was produced in guinea pigs by perfusing the cochlea or injecting the cerebrospinal fluid with bacterial endotoxin. This developed rapidly (within two hours) and was characterised by swelling of the tectorial membrane and damage to both inner and outer hair cells, with parallel functional damage demonstrable electrophysiologically. All these changes ...
متن کاملAntioxidant treatment reduces blast-induced cochlear damage and hearing loss.
Exposure to blast overpressure has become one of the hazards of both military and civilian life in many parts of the world due to war and terrorist activity. Auditory damage is one of the primary sequela of blast trauma, affecting immediate situational awareness and causing permanent hearing loss. Protecting against blast exposure is limited by the inability to anticipate the timing of these ex...
متن کاملnoise-induced outer hair cells' dysfunction and cochlear damage in rabbits
background outer hair cells' (ohcs') dysfunctions as the extent of temporary and permanent threshold shifts (tts and pts) and cochlear damage were assessed in rabbits exposed to continuous noise methods twelve new zealand white rabbits were studied in noise (n) (n=6; exposed to continuous noise; 95 db spl, 500-8000 hz for 8 h per day during 5 consecutive days) and control (c) (n=6; no...
متن کاملAngiotensin converting enzyme and endotoxin induced lung damage in the mouse.
Acute pulmonary oedema can be induced by intraperitoneal injection of Escherichia coli endotoxin in the mouse. A fall in serum angiotensin converting enzyme activity is found in mice given endotoxin and in patients with septic adult respiratory distress syndrome, and has been proposed as an indicator of lung microvascular injury. Protein concentration and angiotensin converting enzyme activity ...
متن کاملDifferential effects of nitric oxide synthase inhibitors on endotoxin-induced liver damage in rats.
BACKGROUND & AIMS During endotoxemia, expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and nitric oxide production in the liver is increased. NO has been suggested to have a hepatoprotective function. The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of iNOS and the effect of different NO synthase inhibitors on liver damage and hemodynamics during endotoxemia. METHODS Rats were in...
