Mucosal damage mediated by clostridial toxin in experimental clindamycin-associated colitis.
A toxin produced by Clostridium difficile has been implicated in the pathogenesis of antibiotic-associated colitis in humans and experimental animals. This study was undertaken in order to define the sequential evolution of caecal mucosal lesions in the hamster and to relate those lesions directly to the clostridial toxin. Sterile filtrates from a culture of C. difficile and from caecal content...
متن کاملFibrin thrombi, a cause of clindamycin-associated colitis?
Rectal biopsies from five patients with clindamycin-associated colitis were studied with the intention of identifying fibrin thrombi in capillaries. Capillary thrombosis was present in all five cases, three with pseudomembranous colitis and two with non-specific colitis. The significance of capillary thrombosis and its relationship to other ischaemic lesions of the gut are discussed.
متن کاملExperimental colitis increases blood-brain barrier permeability in rabbits.
Extraintestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease are numerous. This study examined the effects of two models of acute colitis on cerebral blood flow (CBF) and permeability of the blood-brain barrier in rabbits. CBF (measured with radiolabeled microspheres), or the extraction ratio or permeability-surface area (PS) product of the blood-brain barrier to fluorescein and FITC-dextran, w...
متن کاملComparative evaluation of cefazolin and clindamycin in the treatment of experimental Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis in rabbits.
A rabbit model for Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis was used to compare treatment with clindamycin and cefazolin. Cefazolin (5 mg/kg), cefazolin (15 mg/kg), and clindamycin (70 mg/kg) were injected subcutaneously every 6 h for 28 days. After treatment, S. aureus was found in bone cultures from 22 of 23 control rabbits, 12 of 22 rabbits treated with cefazolin (5 mg/kg), 12 of 23 rabbits treat...
متن کاملChronic immune colitis in rabbits.
A chronic colitis has been induced in rabbits having many of the histological features of human ulcerative colitis. Animals were first immunised with the common enterobacterial antigen of Kunin and haemagglutinating antibodies demonstrated in high titre. An immune complex colitis was then established by the injection of soluble immune complexes following mild irritation of the rectum with dilut...
