Journal ArticleDOI
The microcirculation during endotoxemia
TL;DR: The microvascular responses to endotoxemia are reviewed and some of the mechanisms involved are discussed, including eicosanoids, cytokines, chemokines, adhesion molecules, reactive free radicals, platelet-activating factor, and nitric oxide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endotoxin, endotoxin-neutralizing-capacity, sCD14, sICAM-1, and cytokines in patients with various degrees of alcoholic liver disease.

TL;DR: The limited capacity of plasma to neutralize endotoxin in liver injury seems to be an important factor in ALD which may be responsible for the release of endotoxin-induced mediators, such as cytokines, as well as s-ICAM-1, that are relevant in the pathogenesis of ALD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kupffer cell function in host defense.
TL;DR: The intrahepatic density and level of activation of Kupffer cells were found to play a role in determining endotoxin sensitivity and to be involved, in conjunction with endotoxin, in the development of tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Species differences in Kupffer cells and endotoxin sensitivity.
TL;DR: The results suggests that the intrahepatic density and the level of activation of Kupffer cells participate in determining endotoxin sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ability of various adsorbents to bind endotoxins in vitro and to prevent orally induced endotoxemia in mice
TL;DR: Good correlation was shown between the ability of these drugs to bind endotoxin in vitro as compared with in vivo action, and the most effective material in the prevention of endotoxemia provided to be bentonite followed by Kaopectate and charcoal particles.
