Comparative in vivo and in vitro studies were made on bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and the chemotactic peptide NF-Met-Leu-Phe with a view toward studying their possible role in the pathophysiology of byssinosis. In contrast to LPS, chemotactic peptides did not cause Limulus amebocyte lysate gelation, nor did they induce the release of endogenous pyrogen. Inhalation of LPS caused a peripheral leukocytosis in rabbits 30 min after aerosol administration, whereas peptide inhalation caused a significant leukopenia in the same period. Cellular analysis of guinea pig bronchial lavages after LPS aerosol challenge revealed immediate decreases in all cell types, with subsequent, large increases of macrophages and granulocytes 4-24 h after aerosolization. Inhalation challenge with NF-Met-Leu-Phe induced no significant cellular changes. It was concluded that it is unlikely that these microbial products could be confused with each other when administered in pure form by the inhalation route. 相似文献

To determine whether bacterial endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS from Escherichia coli) could modulate the lethality of cisplatin (CDDP) in mice, animals were treated with LPS (1 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) 24 hr and 1 hr before administration of cisplatin. A 1.6-fold increase in 8-day cumulative mortality was observed in LPS-treated mice compared to the mortality of those injected with saline before CDDP administration. The duration of previous exposure time to LPS appeared to be an important determinant of the potentiating effect, as many more mice died after 24 hr pretreatment than after 1 hr. Because renal toxicity remains a serious limitation to the effective use of CDDP, we determined whether LPS could also enhance CDDP-induced renal injury. CDDP markedly induces an increase in blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels in LPS-treated mice. Treatment with LPS did not affect urinary excretion or renal tissue levels of total platinum, or the plasma pharmacokinetics of free and total platinum. Despite the potentiating effect of LPS on CDDP-induced lethality, it appeared that LPS can provide some enhancement of kidney function, because pretreatment of LPS enhanced an increase in BUN values. 相似文献

Purified cyanobacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was not acutely toxic to three aquatic invertebrates (Artemia salina, Daphnia magna and Daphnia galeata) in immersion trials. However, pre-exposure (24 h) to 2 ng mL−1 LPS increased the LC50 of microcystin-LR significantly in all 3 species. Similar results were observed with A. salina pre-treated with the same concentration of cyanobacterial LPS and subsequently exposed to cylindrospermopsin, increasing the LC50 by 8. The findings indicate the need to include exposures to defined combinations of cyanotoxins, and in defined sequences, to understand the contributions of individual cyanotoxins in accounting for cyanobacterial toxicity to invertebrates in natural aquatic environments. 相似文献

We examined factors which could be responsible for altered sensitivity to endotoxin in tumor bearing mice in order to gain a greater insight into the mechanisms responsible for the toxic effects of the substance. C57BL/6 mice engrafted with 2 × 105 Lewis lung carcinoma cells were injected with 300 μg Salmonella typhosa endotoxin 3,7 and 14 days after tumor cell implantation. A biphasic pattern of mortality was noted when 23 of 35, 1 of 20, and 33 of 34 mice died within 48 hr of injection with endotoxin on days 3, 7 and 14, respectively. Only 1 of 30 normal mice died after injection with this dose of endotoxin. Intestinal penetration by microbial substances did not explain the biphasic sensitivity to endotoxin. Sensitivity to endotoxin seen at day 14 could be associated with tumour mass, but this association would not explain sensitivity to endotoxin at day 3. Regression of tumour growth and decreased tumor-induced mortality was observed in mice injected with 300 μg of endotoxin 7 days after tumor implantation. Larger doses of endotoxin (400–700 μg) had a better therapeutic value but at the expense of increased endotoxin-induced mortality. 相似文献

We have previously shown that intratracheal instillation of diesel exhaust particles enhances lung inflammation and lung expression of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines related to bacterial endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide) in mice. The present study was designed to elucidate the effects of inhalation of diesel exhaust on lung inflammation related to lipopolysaccharide. ICR mice were exposed for 12 hr to clean air or diesel exhaust at a soot concentration of 0.3, 1.0, or 3.0 mg/m(3) after intratracheal challenge with 125 microg/kg of lipopolysaccharide. Lung inflammation and lung expression of proinflammatory chemokines such as macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 and keratinocyte chemoattractant were evaluated 24 hr after intratracheal administration. Diesel exhaust inhalation decreased lipopolysaccharide-elicited inflammatory cell recruitment into the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid as compared with clean air inhalation. Histological study demonstrated that exposure to diesel exhaust did not affect lipopolysaccharide-enhanced neutrophil recruitment into the lung parenchyma. Lipopolysaccharide instillation elevated lung expression of macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 and keratinocyte chemoattractant under clean air or diesel exhaust inhalation. However, diesel exhaust exposure did not influence but rather did suppress these levels in the presence of lipopolysaccharide. These results suggest that short-term exposure to diesel exhaust did not exacerbate lung inflammation related to bacterial endotoxin. 相似文献

1 A lipopolysaccharide extract of Escherichia coli 026:B6 cells (026:B6(B) endotoxin) was shown to be toxic to normal adult guinea-pigs. 2 The agent had no action on isolated preparations of ileum and heart taken from normal adult guinea-pigs. 3 Ileal segments from animals actively immunized against 026:B6(B) endotoxin showed dose-dependent contractions when exposed to endotoxin. Desensitization phenomena were demonstrated. 4 Reactivity of 026:B6(B) endotoxin was transferred to isolated preparations of ileum and heart from normal animals by passive transfer of immune serum. 5 Tissue responses to 026:B6(B) were associated with release of ileal spasmogen into the bath medium. Mepyramine blocked the effects of this spasmogen at bath concentrations which caused little change in ileal responses to carbachol. 6 It is concluded that E. coli endotoxin can elicit anaphylactic reactions, and that this process may potentiate endotoxin toxicity in sensitized animals. However, endotoxin toxicity in guinea-pigs does not appear to depend on this kind of allergic process. 相似文献

Baicalin (BA) exhibits anti-inflammatory effect in vivo and in vitro and is used to treat inflammatory diseases. Here, we report that BA inhibits the activation of macrophage and protects mice from macrophage-mediated endotoxin shock. The experiments in vitro showed BA suppressed the increased generation of nitric oxide (NO) and expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) induced by LPS or Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) without directly affecting iNOS activity in RAW264.7 cells and peritoneal macrophages. Similarly, BA inhibited the production of reactive oxidative species (ROS), whereas augmented the level of intracellular superoxide dismutase (SOD). Moreover, BA inhibited the production of inflammatory mediators including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, endothelin (ET)-1 and thromboxane A2 (TXA2) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in RAW264.7 cells. In animal model, BA protected mice from endotoxin shock induced by d-galactosamine (D-GalN)/LPS possibly through inhibiting the production of cytokine and NO. Collectively, BA inhibited the production of inflammatory mediators by macrophage and may be a potential target for treatment of macrophage-mediated diseases. 相似文献

1. Acute lung injury (ALI) or acute respiratory distress syndrome is a serious clinical problem with high mortality. N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) is an anti-oxidant and a free radical scavenger. It has been reported recently that NAC ameliorates organ damage induced by endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide; LPS) in conscious rats. The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of NAC on LPS-induced ALI and other changes in anaesthetized rats. 2. Sprague-Dawley rats were anaesthetized with pentobarbital (40 mg/kg, i.p.). Endotracheal intubation was performed to provide artificial ventilation. Arterial pressure and heart rate were monitored. The extent of ALI was evaluated with the lung weight (LW)/bodyweight ratio, LW gain, exhaled nitric oxide (NO) and protein concentration in bronchoalveolar lavage (PCBAL). Haematocrit, white blood cells, plasma nitrate/nitrite, methyl guanidine (MG), tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interleukin (IL)-1b were measured. Pathological changes in the lung were examined and evaluated. 3. Endotoxaemia was produced by injection of 10 mg/kg, i.v., LPS (Escherichia coli). Animals were randomly divided into three groups. In the vehicle group, rats received an i.v. drip of physiological saline solution (PSS) at a rate of 0.3 mL/h. The LPS group received an i.v. drip of PSS for 1 h, followed by LPS (10 mg/kg by slow blous injection, i.v., over 1-2 min). Rats in the LPS + NAC group received NAC by i.v. drip at a rate of 150 mg/kg per h (0.3 mL/h) for 60 min starting 10 min before LPS administration (10 mg/kg by slow blous injection, i.v., over 1-2 min). Each group was observed for a period of 6 h. 4. N-Acetylcysteine treatment improved the LPS-induced hypotension and leukocytopenia. It also reduced the extent of ALI, as evidenced by reductions in LW changes, exhaled NO, PCBAL and lung pathology. In addition, NAC diminished the LPS-induced increases in nitrate/nitrite, MG, TNF-a and IL-1b. 5. In another series of experiments, LPS increased the mortality rate compared with the vehicle group (i.v. drip of PSS at a rate of 0.3 mL/h) during a 6 h observation period. N-Acetylcysteine, given 10 min prior to LPS, significantly increased the survival rate. 6. The results of the present study suggest that NAC exerts a protective effect on the LPS-induced ALI. The mechanisms of action may be mediated through the reduction of the production of NO, free radicals and pro-inflammatory cytokines. 相似文献
