We determined the possible beneficial effect of administering antiserum against Re-LPS(F515) on experimental multiple system organ failure (MSOF) in rabbits. The results showed that there were a more significant decrease of the plasma LPS level and a shorter period to recovery than in the control group after receiving antiserum to Re-LPS. Pretreatment with antiserum can remarkably improve the function of liver, lung, kidney, blood and gastrointestinal tract. The incidence of MSOF in rabbits receiving immune sera was only 11.2% and the survival rate was increased by 40.0%. The results suggest that early passive immunotherapy may neutralize gut-derived endotoxin, inhibit endotoxin-induced mediator release and prevent development of severe complication due to sepsis. Prophylactic application of antiserum to LPS core region may provide protective effect on experimental MSOF.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
