PURPOSE Endotoxins, also called lipopolysaccharides (LPS), are major contaminants found in commercially available proteins or biologically active substances, which often complicate study of the biological effects of the main ingredient. The presence of small amounts of endotoxin in recombinant protein preparations can cause side effects in host organism such as endotoxin shock, tissue injury, a...
OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that a temporary cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)-induced reduction of endotoxin antibody levels contributes to elevated endotoxin levels and the associated inflammatory consequences, with a significant influence on the postoperative ventilation time period. BACKGROUND Cardiac surgery using CPB induces a systemic inflammatory response syndrome with an associated risk of...
BACKGROUND Hypoxemia is common in septic acute lung failure. Therapy is mainly supportive, and most trials using specific inhibitors of key inflammatory mediators (ie., tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin 1) have failed to prove beneficial. The authors investigated if a nonspecific blood purification technique, using zero-balanced high-volume continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CWH), mig...
Free radicals are known to play an important role in modulating the development of respiratory muscle dysfunction during sepsis. Moreover, neutrophil numbers increase in the diaphragm after endotoxin administration. Whether or not superoxide derived from infiltrating white blood cells contributes to muscle dysfunction during sepsis is, however, unknown. The purpose of the present study was to e...
PURPOSE Endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) in rats and mice peaks 24 hours after endotoxin injection and is commonly assumed to be a monophasic disease. This study examined intraocular inflammation at later time points to determine whether endotoxin injection can induce recurrent intraocular inflammation in strains of mice with high or moderate levels of susceptibility to EIU. METHODS EIU was el...
Homes contain low but measurable concentrations of endotoxin that have been linked to household conditions such as the presence of animals, smoking, crowding, and farm living. While endotoxin exposure in early life appears to have a protective effect for childhood asthma; the evidence from prospective cohort studies of young children suggests that endotoxin exposure contributes to early develop...
Hazardous biochemical agents in animal husbandry indoor environments are known to promote the occurrence of various illnesses among workers and animals. The relationship between endotoxin levels in dust collected from chicken farms and various immunological markers was investigated. Peripheral blood was obtained from 20 broiler chickens and 20 laying hens from four different chicken farms in Ko...
By SHELDON M. WOLFF, MELVIN RUBENSTEIN, JOHN H. MULHOLLAND AND DAVID W. ALLING T HE PROFOUND HEMATOLOGIC alterations evoked in experimental animals following endotoxin administration have been considered to play a major role in the pathogenesis of some of the biologic effects produced by these lipopolysaccharides. Marked leukopenia, primarily granulocytopenia, and subsequent granulocytosis as w...
The objective of this study was to fill in additional knowledge gaps with respect to the extraction, storage, and analysis of airborne endotoxin, with a specific focus on samples from a dairy production facility. We utilized polycarbonate filters to collect total airborne endotoxins, sonication as the extraction technique, and 0.05% Tween 20 in pyrogen-free water (PFW) as the extraction solutio...
Vaccination of mice with GRP94/gp96, the endoplasmic reticulum Hsp90, elicits a variety of immune responses sufficient for tumor rejection and the suppression of metastatic tumor progression. Macrophages are a prominent GRP94/gp96 target, with GRP94/gp96 reported to activate macrophage NF-kappa B signaling and nitric oxide production, as well as the MAP kinase p38, JNK, and ERK signaling cascad...
