Annual Review of Medicine, 1976
The incidence of and mortality from gram-negative bacterial sepsis is increasing (I). The morbidity and mortality associated with infections caused by gram-negative . bacteria are considered to be related to the endotoxins present in the cell walls of these bacteria. Endotoxin-like materials have been isolated from other organisms; however, this review

Critical Care Medicine, 2002
Endotoxin tolerance was initially described when it was observed that animals survived a lethal dose of bacterial endotoxin if they had been previously treated with a sublethal injection. In animal models, two phases of endotoxin tolerance are described, an early phase associated with altered cellular activation and a late phase associated with the ...

Acta Clinica Belgica, 1976
SummaryBacterial endotoxins possess the capacity to produce disseminated intravascular coagulation in laboratory animals and in man. The mechanism by which endotoxin initiates intravascular coagulation, however, has not been conclusively established. The studies reviewed in this report outline the multiple aspects of the interaction between endotoxin ...

Mechanisms of the Lethal Action of Endotoxin and Endotoxin Hypersensitivity
1990Endotoxins (lipopolysaccharides, LPS) are endowed with a vast spectrum of biological activities that are both harmful and beneficiary for the host-organism. Many of these activities, e.g., mitogenic and polyclonal stimulation of antibody-producing cells, adjuvance activity or induction of prostaglandin and leucotriene synthesis in macrophages are not ...

Lymphocyte Activation by Endotoxin and Endotoxin Protein
1983A perusal of the literature on endotoxins in the past decade makes it clear that a renewed interest has developed to explain the multiple pathophysiological and immunological host responses to lipopolysac-charide endotoxin (LPS). In great measure this was due to the recognition that many of these responses were under genetic control.

Gram-negative bacteria contain endotoxins as integral components of their outer membrane. Endotoxins are potent biological agents, and, as contaminants of dusts, can be associated with acute lung reactivity in exposed individuals. Endotoxins can be quantified in bulk materials, dusts and waters, yet many questions remain to be resolved related to their
