The Role of the CD14 molecule in equine endotoxemia
نویسندگان
چکیده
Objectives – To evaluate the effects of equine sCD14 and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to equine CD14 on LPS-induced TNFα expression of equine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). To determine serum concentrations of soluble (sCD14) in a population of horses with gastrointestinal diseases or other illnesses likely to result in endotoxemia; and identify relationships with clinical data. Animals – Part 1; 10 healthy horses. Part 2; 55 clinical cases and 23 healthy control horses. Procedure – Part 1; PBMCs were incubated with Escherichia coli LPS, CD14 mAb, sCD14, CD14 mAb plus E coli LPS or sCD14 plus E coli LPS. Supernatants were collected at 6 hours and assayed for tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) activity. Part 2; Serum sCD14 was measured at admission and then at 24 and 48 hours after admission using a bead-based multiplex assay. Results – Part 1; Pre-incubation with CD14 mAb did not inhibit LPS-induced TNFα protein production in isolated equine monocytes. Use of sCD14 inhibited LPS-induced TNFα protein production in isolated monocytes in a concentration-dependent manner. Part 2; Serum concentration of sCD14 was positively related to duration of clinical signs (P = 0.007), respiratory rate (P=0.04) and band neutrophil count (P = 0.0002). There was no correlation between serum concentration of sCD14 and heart rate, temperature, hematocrit, lactate, white blood cell count, fibrinogen, creatinine, urea nitrogen, glucose and anion gap values. Serum sCD14 did not correlate with outcome at any time point for clinical cases.

Effect of endotoxemia on heart rate dynamics in rat isolated perfused hearts
Introduction: Beat-to-beat variation in heart rate shows a complex dynamics, and this complexity is changed during systemic inflammatory response syndrome (e.g. sepsis). It is not known whether or not cardiac pacemaker dynamical rhythm is affected by sepsis. The aim of this study was to investigate heart rate dynamics of isolated heart as well as expression of pacemaker channels (HCN) in a r...

Sepsis is a serious issue in the geriatric population due to its association with high mortality rates in the elderly. The increase in mortality in the elderly correlates with inflammation. We have previously demonstrated that the inflammatory response is exacerbated in a rodent endotoxemia model of sepsis in aged rats compared with young rats. However, the molecular mediators associated with t...

Background: CD14 is known as a receptor for bacterial LPS (Lipopolysaccharides) and is followed by inflammatory reactions. This receptor on macrophage surface has a major role for recognition and clearance was happen without inflammatory reaction. Prolonged exposure to microbial products decreases the risk of allergic reactions. This is related to high level of CD14 in blood cells. Although the...

BACKGROUND: The acute phase response is beneficial to theanimal in restoring homeostasis, and measuring the circulatingacute phase proteins, cytokines, and enzymes can be used toevaluate the innate immune system's responses to invader agentssuch as bacterial lipopolysaccharide. Measurement of theseparameters has shown to be useful as diagnostic and prognosticmarkers in animal endotoxemia. OBJEC...
