Effects of glycine/polymyxine B mixture on endotoxin-induced acute phase response in rabbits / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

AIM: To explore effects of glycine and polymyxin B mixture (Gly/PMB) on endotoxin-induced acute phase response in vivo . METHODS: Model of acute phase response was reconstructed by endotoxin (ET) in rabbits. Specimens of blood were collected at 1 hour after the highest body temperature. Leukocyte count, serum C-reactive protein and trace element were also detected. RESULTS: Pretreatment of half-dose Gly/PMB significantly inhibited acute phase response induced by ET ( P 0.05). CONCLUSION: These results suggested that glycine enhanced the inhibitory effect of polymyxin B on ET-induced acute phase response. The advantage of glycine and polymyxin B mixture was decreasing dosage and side effects of polymyxin B. [
