چکیده مقاله:

BACKGROUND: The acute phase response is beneficial to theanimal in restoring homeostasis, and measuring the circulatingacute phase proteins, cytokines, and enzymes can be used toevaluate the innate immune system's responses to invader agentssuch as bacterial lipopolysaccharide. Measurement of theseparameters has shown to be useful as diagnostic and prognosticmarkers in animal endotoxemia. OBJECTIVES: The aim of thepresent experimental study was expression of the acute phaseresponse following the induction of endotoxemia by Escherichiacoli serotype O55:B5 in sheep and the relationships among the acutephase response parameters during endotoxemia and their changingpatterns. METHODS: Five clinically healthy 1-year-old Iranian fattailedewes (25±1.5 kg, bodyweight) were randomly selected andlipopolysaccharide from Escherichia coli serotype O55:B5 wasinfused at 20 μg/kg intravenously to each animal. Fluid therapy wasperformed in all ewes over 120 minutes after lipopolysaccharideinjection and continued for 180 minutes. Blood samples werecollected from all ewes prior and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 24 hours afterlipopolysaccharide injection and sera were separated. Serumconcentrations of haptoglobin, serum amyloid A, tumor necrosisfactor-alpha, interferon-gamma, superoxide dismutase, andglutathione peroxidase were assayed. RESULTS: The rapid andsignificant elevation of haptoglobin, serum amyloid A, tumornecrosis factor-alpha, and interferon-gamma were seen afterendotoxemia induction. Serum concentrations of superoxidedismutase and glutathione peroxidase were significantly decreasedafter intravenous lipopolysaccharide infusion. The results of thepresent experimental study showed that haptoglobin, serumamyloid A, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interferon-gamma atall hours studied after endotoxemia induction were positivelycorrelated together. These parameters were negatively correlatedwith superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase at all hoursafter lipopolysaccharide infusion. CONCLUSIONS: The results ofthe present experiment can provide evidence for associationsamong acute phase proteins, cytokines, and enzymes and theirchanges during endotoxemia in sheep.

The relationship among acute-phase response proteins, cytokines and hormones in cachectic patients with colon cancer

BACKGROUND Acute-phase response proteins (APRP), cytokines and hormones have been claimed to be an independent prognostic factor of malignancies, however the basis for their association with prognosis remains unexplained. We suggest that in colon malignancies, as similar to pancreatic and lung cancers, changes in APRP are associated with angiogenesis. METHODS C-reactive protein (CRP), albumin...

The comparative clinical efficacy of intravenous insulin regular, dexamethasone and flunixin meglumine on ovine experimental endotoxemia

The lack of an effective treatment for endotoxemia causes high mortality rates in affected animals. Forty clinically healthy 1-year old Iranian fat-tailed ewes were assigned randomly into 8 experimental equal (n = 5) groups, comprising Insln 1.5, Insln 3, Insln 6, Insln 9, Insln 20, Dexa, Flnx and Control. Lipopolysaccharide from E. coli serotype O55:B5 was used to induce endot...

Maternal undernutrition and the ovine acute phase response to vaccination

BACKGROUND The acute phase response is the immediate host response to infection, inflammation and trauma and can be monitored by measuring the acute phase proteins (APP) such as haptoglobin (Hp) or serum amyloid A (SAA). The plane of nutrition during pregnancy is known to affect many mechanisms including the neuroendocrine and neuroimmune systems in neonatal animals but effects on the APP are u...

Acute phase protein response in an experimental model of ovine caseous lymphadenitis

BACKGROUND Caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) is a disease of small ruminants caused by Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis. The pathogenesis of CLA is a slow process, and produces a chronic rather than an acute disease state. Acute phase proteins (APP) such as haptoglobin (Hp) serum amyloid A (SAA) and alpha1 acid glycoprotein (AGP) are produced by the liver and released into the circulation in respon...

Neural response to emotional stimuli during experimental human endotoxemia.

Increases in peripheral cytokines during acute inflammation may affect various neuropsychological functions. The aim of this functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study was to investigate the effects of acute endotoxemia on mood and the neural response to emotionally aversive visual stimuli in healthy human subjects. In a double-blind, randomized crossover study, 18 healthy males receive...
