The role of oxygen free radicals in the endotoxic shock induced myocardial dysfunction and cellular injury
The pathophysiology of endotoxemia is complex. Endotoxic shock (ET-shock) associated with increased levels of cytokines (interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)), platelet activating factor (PAF), activated complement (C3a, C5a) and norepinephrine in the blood. Activated complement, …

Role of Covalent Modification of Hyaluronan with Inter-Alpha Inhibitor Heavy Chains During Acute Lung Injury
… during systemic lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxic shock and its associated acute lung injury. We therefore hypothesized that HC-HA should play an important protective role against acute lung injury induced by intratracheal LPS or Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) gram-negative bacteria. We also …

Effects of drugs which alter blood cell deformability in circulatory shock produced by endotoxin
… survival in experimental hemorrhagic, septic and endotoxic shock. In the present investigation, the effects of pentoxifylline on endotoxin-induced mortality, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), hypotension, and reduction in blood cell deformability were studied in awake rats and compared …

Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Production By Murine Peritoneal Macrophages in Response to Candida Albicans Yeasts, Germ Tubes, and Mycelia
… that has been found to cause lethal septic shock and disseminated infection in immunocrompromised hosts. Following colonization of the hosts tissues the yeast form of the organism forms germ tubes and eventually mycelia. The yeast form of the organism is enerally associated with the …

Cardiovascular and Hematological Effects of Hetastarch and Hypertonic Saline Solutions During Experimental Endotoxemia in Horses
… ug/kg given over 30 minutes. After induction of endotoxic shock; group I (control) received a bolus (15 ml/kg) of isotonic solution, group II (isotonic solution) received a bolus (60 ml/kg) of balanced polyionic crystalloid solution and group III (Hypertonic saline plus Hetastarch) received a …

The role of Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase in the regulation of innate recognition of immunological receptors expressed on human macrophages.
… (LPS), the main causative agents of sepsis and endotoxic shock. Signaling from CD14-LPS and TLR4/MD-2 complex activate the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) family of transcription factors and JNK, a member of MAP kinase (MAPK) family. This signaling results in the production of the proinflammatory …
