A transient iridocyclitis is produced in rabbits by the intravenous injection of bacterial endotoxin. A major feature of this response is an altered vascular permeability which can be measured by the ocular accumulation of circulating 125I-labeled albumin. The present study was made to determine the effects of inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis of the ocular response to an E. coli 055:B5 end...
In studying "hemorrhagic necrosis" of tumors produced by endotoxin, it was found that the serum of bacillus Calmette--Guerin (BCG)-infected mice treated with endotoxin contains a substance (tumor necrosis factor; TNF) which mimics the tumor necrotic action of endotoxin itself. TNF-positive serum is as effective as endotoxin itself in causing necrosis of the sarcoma Meth A and other transplanted...
Most early investigations of the chemistry of endotoxins were limited to gross analyses. I t soon became apparent that subtler means of degradation, such as enzymes, were necessary to determine structural configurations and intramolecular relationships within the endotoxin complex. Just such a subtle endotoxin-degrading system was suggested by the observation of Hegemann (1954) that human plasm...
Concentrations of endotoxin in urban air pollution have not previously been extensively characterized. We measured 24-hr levels of PM10 (particulate matter < 10 microm in aerodynamic diameter) and the associated endotoxin component once every 6 weeks for 1 year in 13 communities in Southern California. All the samples collected had detectable PM10 and endotoxin levels. The geometric mean PM10 w...
This study performed a histological analysis of the effect of formocresol associated to endotoxin (LPS) in the subcutaneous connective tissue of mice. Ninety mice were randomly assigned to 3 groups (n=30). Each animal received one plastic tube implant containing endotoxin solution (10 mg/mL), formocresol (original formula) or a mixture of endotoxin and formocresol. The endotoxin and formocresol...
Endotoxin is one of the major factors causing myocardial depression and death during sepsis in humans. Recently, it was reported that endotoxin may induce cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Also, multiple caspase activation has been implicated in endotoxin-induced apoptosis in several organ systems. In this study, we investigated whether endotoxin would increase myocardial caspase activities and evaluate...
Baker, Phillip J. (University of Wisconsin, Madison), and J. B. Wilson. Chemical composition and biological properties of the endotoxin of Brucella abortus. J. Bacteriol. 90:895-902. 1965.-The ability of endotoxin to induce hypoferremia in mice was used to measure the specific activity of various endotoxin preparations of Escherichia coli and Brucella abortus and to determine the endotoxin cont...
To characterize the seasonal variability of endotoxin levels, we measured endotoxin in dust from the bed, bedroom floor, and kitchen floor in 20 homes, and in air from the bedroom in 15 of the homes. All homes were located in the greater Boston, Massachusetts, area and were sampled each month from April 1995 to June 1996. Outdoor air was collected at two locations. We found greater within-home ...
The immune system provides an intricate, balanced response to combat the effects of inflammatory stimuli. It incorporates both positive and negative feedback from multiple physiological systems such as cardiovascular endocrine including mechanisms functioning on a variety time scales. They have been studied individually via scientific experiments using mathematical modeling. However, more analy...
