Lactoferrin and the Inflammatory Response

1994
Polyclonal antibodies were prepared to purified breast milk lactoferrin and used in an ELISA to measure plasma concentrations in investigations of various aspects of the inflammatory response. They were also used, in situ, to evaluate granulocyte lactoferrin content in disease states.

The inflammatory response in the CNS

Neuropathology and Applied Neurobiology, 1992
In recent years it has been recognized that cells of the mononuclear phagocyte lineage, macro‐phages and microglia, are a major component of gliosis. We review here studies on the kinetics of the myelomonocytic response to acute excitotoxin induced neuronal degeneration and following the injection of endotoxin (LPS) into the parenchyma of the central ...

Pathophysiology of the inflammatory response

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1999
Airway allergic reactions enlist diverse cells and a multitude of chemical mediators that are responsible for the clinical symptoms of allergic rhinitis and asthma. Experiments in vitro and in animal models, as well as increasingly numerous studies in atopic human subjects, are revealing that an orchestrated continuum of cellular activities leading to ...

Mechanisms of the inflammatory response

Best Practice & Research Clinical Anaesthesiology, 2004
The physiological alterations induced by acute inflammation present significant management challenges for anaesthesiologists. Major surgery, trauma, burns and sepsis all have large inflammatory components. Acute inflammation is characterized by vasodilatation, fluid exudation and neutrophil infiltration. These processes are activated and amplified by a

Prostaglandins and the Inflammatory Response

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1983
Prostaglandins not only mediate the classic signs of inflammation but also help to regulate the function of cellular constituents in an inflammatory reaction. Clinical and experimental evidence of the role of prostaglandins as mediators is highlighted.

The inflammatory response to endotoxin

The Journal of Pathology, 1979
A typical inflammatory response resulted from the intravenous injection of endotoxin (E. coli) into living rabbits. Each rabbit was studied at three levels: the microvasculature and supporting tissue in the ear chamber was observed microscopically (up to X200) before, during, and at regular intervals following the injection of endotoxin; leucocyte and ...

Inflammatory response in the elderly

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2003
During ageing there may be the onset of a chronic inflammatory state. This review examines the underlying causes of this phenomenon and the role that genotype plays in its intensity.There are predisposing factors for the chronic inflammation that occurs during ageing.

Inflammatory Response to Implants

ASAIO Journal, 1988
The implantation of artificial organs, medical devices, or biomaterials results in injury and initiation of the inflammatory response. This inflammatory response to implants has as its components acute inflammation, chronic inflammation, foreign body reaction with granulation tissue, and macrophage and foreign body giant cell interactions. The form and

Platelets and the Inflammatory Response

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1983
The involvement of platelets with inflammatory mediators, synthesized and/or released on contact with inflammatory signals, has recently been defined. Localized interactions of platelets and neutrophils with the blood vessel wall and with each other represent another part platelets play in the modulation of inflammatory responses.

Inflammatory Response

Shock, 2013
Inflammation is powerful response to destroy invading organisms, and an exaggerated response can lead to death of the host. Macrophages secrete mediators that activated circulating neutrophils leading to its migration into infectious site. Recently, it has been shown that lymphocytes have an action modulating the early phase of inflammatory response ...
