Across-shift changes in upper airways after exposure to bacterial cell wall components
Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2019 Introduction To assess the across-shift changes of cytokine concentrations in nasal lavage (NAL) samples were collected from workers exposed to bacterial cell wall components present in organic dust in three different occupational environments.

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 ...

Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. galleriae simultaneously produces two δ-endotoxins differing strongly in primary structure and entomocidal activity [PDF]
, 1988 Strain 11–67 of B. thuringiensis ssp. galleriae produces two entomocidal proteins of molecular mass 130 kDa. Limited proteolysis of these proteins — protoxins — yields the ‘true’ toxins of molecular mass 65 kDa which are drastically different with ...

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.

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.

Toll-like receptor-mediated signaling cascade as a regulator of the inflammation network during alcoholic liver disease [PDF]
, 2014 Chronic abuse of alcohol leads to various histological abnormalities in the liver. These are conditions collectively known as alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Currently, ALD is considered to be one of the major causes of death worldwide.
