1,25- dihydroxycholecalciferol-glycoside supplementation for LPS - challenged broiler chickens
… of broilers challenged with lipopolysaccharides (LPS). At 20 days old, 144 male broilers were weighed and distributed in a completely randomized design with three treatments, eight replicates, and six birds per experimental unit. The treatments consisted in a basal diet without LPS administration …

Nutrient Utilization in Pigs and Chicks Treated With Lipopolysaccharide: Lysine, Threonine, Arginine, Sulfur Amino Acids and Vitamin E
… saline or Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) following 12 h of feed deprivation. Immunological stress was induced by LPS as indicated by increased plasma levels of the cytokines tumor necrosis factor-$\alpha$ (TNF-$\alpha$ and interleukin-6 (IL-6), and the catabolic hormone cortisol. The …

Role of infection and inflammation in a mouse model of preterm labour
… doses of bacterial-derived lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on day 17 of gestation. Time to delivery, and the number of live born pups were determined. Intrauterine administration of increasing doses of LPS dose-dependently induced preterm labour and reduced the proportion of live born pups. Analysis …

Development and analysis of an in vitro model of inflammatory cytokine-mediated idiosyncratic drug hepatotoxicity
… incorporates bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration along with inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor, interferon y, interleukin-1 a, interleukin-113, and interleukin-6) previously shown to increase in LPS-administrated rats. Our study began with an investigation of …

Investigating the Reconstitution and Function of Peritoneal Cavity Macrophages after LPS-induced Peritonitis
… macrophage population after lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced peritonitis. A double recombinase, GATA6 and Lyz-M genetically driven fate mapping mouse was engineered to report on the large peritoneal population in response to a biologically relevant dose of lipopolysaccharide. Spectral flow …

Neuroinflammation and comorbid depression: a role for interleukin-1 beta converting enzyme and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase
… to be protective following lipopolysaccharides (LPS) administration. A series of studies were designed to test the hypothesis that ICE is necessary for development of depression-like behaviors in response to neuroinflammation induced by LPS. These studies established that ICE in brain is …

Effects of voluntary wheel running and forced treadmill running on inflammation induced behavioral abnormalities in young and old mice
… forced treadmill running on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) induced sickness behavior (food intake, fluid intake, body weight, locomotor activity), depressive-like behavior (tail suspension test, sucrose preference), and activation of brain cytokine signaling pathways …

Inflammatory Mechanisms And Vulnerability For Major Depression: From Animal Models To Drug Treatment
… by an impairment in coping mechanisms, LPS administration was used as an inflammatory challenge to investigate how the pharmacological treatment might affect brain responsiveness under a challenging condition. Specifically, male rats were treated for 21 days with agomelatine and they …

Effect of a maternal inflammatory challenge during the preimplantation period on offspring development and phenotype
… 10, 50 or 150 ?g/kg lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) to female mice on gestational day 0.5 (GD 0.5).<br/>In vitro culture of mouse embryos with select higher concentrations of IFN-? resulted in a greater proportion of cavitated embryos (1000 pg/ml) and …
