Plasma changes in endotoxin and anaphylactic shock (ATP, ADP and Creatine phosphorus).

چکیده
Decisive patterns have been demonstrated in plasma adenosine 5' triphosphate (ATP) levels in both endotoxin and anaphylactic shock which correlate with periods of low platelet counts, low arterial pressures and abnormal electrocardiograms. When these irregularities were occurring, the plasma ATP level was low; when improvement occurred, the plasma ATP level rose. Plasma ATP levels appear to be an index to the metabolic state of the animal. The plasma creatine phosphate (CP) level showed a tendency to decrease when the ATP level dropped in anaphylactic shock, although the CP level did not recover to the same extent as the ATP level. In endotoxin shock, the plasma CP level increased on an average of six-fold. It is proposed that this rise resulted from either CP mobilization from tissues, for the purpose of replenishing the energy deficient myocardial muscle, or possible leakage from damaged cells. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) plasma values were measured in both anaphylactic and endotoxin shock. High initial ADP values were prone towards a more severe anaphylactic reaction and a shorter survival time in the endotoxin shock experiments.

The Initial Stage of Canine Endotoxin Shock as an Expression of Anaphylactic Shock: Studies on Complement Titers and Plasma Histamine Concentrations.
Within 30 to 60 seconds after endotoxin is injected into adult mongrel dogs there is a decline in systemic blood pressure, a rise in portal vein pressure, a reduction in the venous return of blood to the heart, and a decrease in renal blood flow (1, 2). Endotoxin shock is comparable in many ways to acute anaphylactic shock in the dog (3). Several observations have suggested that an immune mecha...
متن کاملComparative study of blood clotting factors in anaphylactic and primary and secondary endotoxin shock.
Cinephotomicrography shows emboli are formed in the lung during stages of anaphylactic and endotoxin shock and platelet counts are decreased. Rabbits in anaphylactic shock had a 50 percent mortality while 100 percent mortality was associated with endotoxin shock. During the terminal phase, the platelet count recovers in anaphylactic shock but not in endotoxin shock. This suggests a difference i...
متن کاملEffect of fasting, hypocaloric feeding, and refeeding on the energetics of stimulated rat muscle as assessed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
A previous study suggested that muscles from hypocalorically fed rats were limited in their ability to rephosphorylate ADP. During muscle contraction hydrolysis of ATP results in an increase in phosphorus, free ADP, delta GATP, and a reduction in phosphocreatine levels that is reversed during rest by rephosphorylation of ADP to ATP and the resynthesis of phosphocreatine by ATP. We therefore hyp...

北村 満保 Previously, it was reported that in in vivo anaphylaxis there were observed a fall in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) level and a rise in adenosine monophosphate (AMP) level of guinea-pig liver, but no changes in the values of ATP and other adenine nucleotides in the lung of in vivo shock. However, the fall of ATP in liver was not observable in in vitro anaphylactic reaction (1). The fall of...

A method is described for the determination of low plasma levels of adenosine-5'-diphosphate (ADP) using a Dupont Biometer to measure luminescence produced by the luciferin-luciferase reaction. Endogenous ATP is removed by incubation with luciferase. The remaining ADP is then quantitated, following its conversion to ATP, after incubation with creatine phosphate and creatine kinase. The mean coe...
