Sodium Hypochlorite Treatment: The Impact on Bacteria and Endotoxin Concentrations in Drinking Water Pipes of A Pig Nursery

open access: yesAgriculture, 2020
Poor drinking water quality can affect pigs’ health and performance. The disinfection of water may enhance microbial water quality. In this study, bacteria and endotoxins in sodium hypochlorite-treated and -untreated water from one pig nursery were

A mucin-like peptide from Fasciola hepatica instructs dendritic cells with parasite specific Th1-polarizing activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Fasciolosis is a trematode zoonosis of interest in public health and cattle production. We report here the immunostimulatory effect of a 66 mer mucin-like peptide from Fasciola hepatica (Fhmuc), which synergizes with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to promote ...

Consequences of the Lack of IL-10 in Different Endotoxin Effects and its Relationship With Glucocorticoids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Sepsis constitutes one of the major causes of death in ICUs. In sepsis induced by gram-negative, although lipopolysaccharide (LPS) initially induces an exacerbated secretion of proinflammatory cytokines leading to endotoxic shock and death resembling a ...

Influence of Immune Status on the Airborne Colonization of Piglets with Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Clonal Complex (CC) 398 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Colonized vertebrates including humans and pigs are to date the main reservoirs of livestock-associated Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA-MRSA). Currently, the mechanisms underlying colonization of pigs are not fully understood.

Endotoxin Tolerance Induced by Detoxified Endotoxin (Endotoxoid)

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1968
SummaryNonspecific tolerance towards the lethal action of endotoxins from different gram-negative bacteria can be induced within 24 hours by a single injection of S. marcescens endotoxoid. This endotoxin tolerance is not based on circulating antibodies.

Pantoea agglomerans : a marvelous bacterium of evil and good. Part I. Deleterious effects: Dust-borne endotoxins and allergens – focus on cotton dust

open access: yesAnnals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2015
The ubiquitous Gram-negative bacterium Pantoea agglomerans (synonyms: Enterobacter agglomerans , Erwinia herbicola ) is known both as an epiphytic microbe developing on the surface of plants and as an endophytic organism living inside the plants. The

Homologous expression and purification of human HAX‐1 for structural studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This research protocol provides detailed instructions for cloning, expressing, and purifying large quantities of the intrinsically disordered human HAX‐1 protein, N‐terminally fused to a cleavable superfolder GFP, from mammalian cells. HAX‐1 is predicted to undergo posttranslational modifications and to interact with membranes, various cellular ...

Mechanisms of endotoxin shock and endotoxin hypersensitivity

open access: yesImmunobiology, 1993
Endotoxins (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) are biologically active substances present in Gram-negative bacteria. Injection of purified LPS into experimental animals leads to the development of many biological activities that can lead to shock with lethal outcome.
