Systemic inflammatory response to inhaled endotoxin does not correlate with airway response
Respiratory Research, 2019 Background Endotoxin is a component of particulate matter linked to respiratory disease. Our group has shown that experimental endotoxin inhalation challenge reproducibly triggers neutrophilic inflammation in the airways and in peripheral blood.

Endotoxin Production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 9027 with Potential Medical Applications
Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2019 Four Gram-negative bacteria (E.coli ATCC 19404, P. aeruginosa ATCC9027, A. hydrophila ATCC 7966 and V. damsel ATCC 33539) were screened for production of endotoxin. P. aeruginosa recoded the highest endotoxin concentration (338.59 x 103 IU/ml).

The endotoxin of the meningococcus [PDF]
Journal of Hygiene, 1937 1. The view is advanced that the endotoxin of the meningococcus is one of a group of thermostable intracellular bacterial poisons, and that it is not a specific antigenic toxin. 2. The inability of the “endotoxin” to function as an antigen does not lessen its importance as a pathogenic factor in cerebrospinal fever, since the lesions that are ...

The Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2006 In 1947, Paul Beeson showed that rabbits repeatedly injected with certain bacteria eventually become resistant to the bacteria's fever-provoking effects—a phenomenon known as endotoxin tolerance.

Seasonal Changes in Endotoxin Exposure and Its Relationship to Exhaled Nitric Oxide and Exhaled Breath Condensate pH Levels in Atopic and Healthy Children. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 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.

Environmental Health Perspectives, 2009 Exposure to endotoxin, a component of gram-negative bacterial cell walls, is widespread in many industrial settings and in the ambient environment. Heavy-exposure environments include livestock farms, cotton textile facilities, and saw mills. Concentrations are highly variable in non-occupational indoor and outdoor environments.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Медицинская иммунология, 2015 At the present time, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) takes the leading place among systemic autoimmune disorders. Despite considerable progress in understanding basic pathogenesis of this disease, many subtle mechanisms of progressive inflammation in ...
