Protection against lipopolysaccharide-induced death by fluoroquinolones.
Because fluoroquinolones have an immunomodulatory effect on cytokine production by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated human monocytes, we examined the effect of fluoroquinolones on the survival of mice injected with a lethal dose of LPS. Trovafloxacin (100 mg/kg), ciprofloxacin (250 mg/kg), and tosufloxacin (100 mg/kg) protected 75% (P = 0.0001), 25% (P = 0.002), and 50% (P = 0.002), respectively...
متن کاملKCNMA1 Encoded Cardiac BK Channels Afford Protection against Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
Mitochondrial potassium channels have been implicated in myocardial protection mediated through pre-/postconditioning. Compounds that open the Ca2+- and voltage-activated potassium channel of big-conductance (BK) have a pre-conditioning-like effect on survival of cardiomyocytes after ischemia/reperfusion injury. Recently, mitochondrial BK channels (mitoBKs) in cardiomyocytes were implicated as ...
متن کاملPolyvalent antisera to Pseudomonas ribosomal vaccines: protection of mice against clinically isolated strains.
The preparation of polyvalent antisera to ribosomal vaccines from Pseudomonas aeruginosa is described. The ability of these antisera to protect mice by passive immunization against challenge with randomly chosen, clinically isolated strains of P. aeruginosa is reported. Significant protection was achieved against 34 of 40 strains tested (85%). Included among these strains against which protecti...
متن کاملProtection against glucose-induced neuronal death by NAAG and GCP II inhibition is regulated by mGluR3.
Glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCP II) inhibition has previously been shown to be protective against long-term neuropathy in diabetic animals. In the current study, we have determined that the GCP II inhibitor 2-(phosphonomethyl) pentanedioic acid (2-PMPA) is protective against glucose-induced programmed cell death (PCD) and neurite degeneration in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons in a cell c...
متن کاملDemonstration of opsonic activity and in vivo protection against group B streptococci type III by Streptococcus pneumoniae type 14 antisera
The present studies demonstrate that antisera directed against Streptococcus pneumoniae type 14 is opsonic for group B streptococci type III in a neutrophile-mediated bactericidal assay. Specificity was demonstrated by the observations that group B streptococci type III and S. pneumoniae type 14 adsorbed the opsonic activity of anti-S. pneumoniae type 14 antisera. Group B streptococci strain 09...
