Lipopolysaccharides (LPS, endotoxin) are complex and indispensable components of the outer membrane of most Gram-negative bacteria. They represent stimuli for many biological effects with pathophysiological character. Recombinant therapeutic proteins that are manufactured using biotechnological processes are prone to LPS contaminations due to their ubiquitous occurrence. The maximum endotoxin l...
The inflammatory and lung maturational effects of intra-amniotic exposure to endotoxin were assessed in fetal lambs. Five hours to 25 days after intra-amniotic injection of endotoxin, preterm lambs were delivered at 119-125 days gestation. Intra-amniotic endotoxin caused an inflammatory cell infiltration in amnion/chorion at 5 h, which persisted for 25 days. At 5-15 h after endotoxin, amnion/ch...
Inflammation-related anorexic response has been observed in systemic diseases as well as in localized infection and is an important issue in patient care. We tested the hypothesis that upon the same endotoxin exposure, males have more severe inflammatory responses and thus suffer from more negative effect on appetite. Ten-week old male and female mice were compared in their plasma levels of pro...
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...
Endotoxin, a component of the cell walls of gram-negative bacteria, is a contaminant in organic dusts (house dust) and aerosols. In humans, small amounts of endotoxin may cause a local inflammatory response. Exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) levels, an inflammation indicator, are associated with the pH values of exhaled breath condensate (EBC). This study evaluated seasonal changes on indoor endotoxin...
Immune-defective and immunologically normal F1 mice derived from the CBA/N strain were used to study the influence of anti-endotoxin antibody on the lethal effects of endotoxin. Immune-defective F1 male mice were unable to make specific responses to purified preparations of E. coli O111:B4 endotoxin, whereas their immunologically normal F1 female littermates made excellent responses. The abilit...
Ramesh G, Kimball SR, Jefferson LS, Reeves WB. Endotoxin and cisplatin synergistically stimulate TNFproduction by renal epithelial cells. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 292: F812–F819, 2007. First published October 10, 2006; doi:10.1152/ajprenal.00277.2006.—Acute renal failure often occurs in the clinical setting of multiple renal insults. Tumor necrosis factor(TNF) has been implicated in the patho...
Exposure to bioaerosols in occupational settings is associated with a range of adverse health effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the exposure levels to dust and endotoxin of people working in two cucumber nurseries and two tomato nurseries. Exposure was measured for greenhouse workers (n = 70) mainly working on harvesting cucumbers and tomatoes and clearing the plants after the h...
Rabbits were given polyclonal anti-tissue factor (TF) immunoglobulin G (IgG) before an injection of endotoxin to test the hypothesis that TF triggers disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) after endotoxin. The rabbits had been prepared with cortisone to develop DIC after one injection of endotoxin. Anti-TF IgG substantially reduced the falls in fibrinogen, factors V and VIII, and platelet...
OBJECTIVES Much of the cost of exposure assessment for studies of residential cohorts is in scheduling and travel time for field staff. One way to reduce costs is to simplify methods such that subjects can sample their own residence. Analysis of settled dust is being widely used for assessment of exposures to allergens, lead and pesticides and can also be used for endotoxins. While vacuum sampl...
