Effect of endotoxin on granulation tissue formation in rats. 1981

J Kanta, and J Novotný, and P Pumprla, and E Cerná, and F Bartos

Open wounds were incised in the dorsal skin of female Wistar rats. Solutions of Salmonella typhosa endotoxin (0.25 micrograms to 25 micrograms/ml saline) were applied 3 times a day on granulation tissue formed in the wounds. 5 days of treatment with the lowest endotoxin concentration resulted in 25% increase of the weight of the tissue, a more than 30% increase of DNA content and a 25% increase of hydroxyproline content in the tissue. Further elevation of these values could be obtained by increasing endotoxin concentration by tenfold or hundredfold but these changes were not very pronounced.

D003094 Collagen A polypeptide substance comprising about one third of the total protein in mammalian organisms. It is the main constituent of SKIN; CONNECTIVE TISSUE; and the organic substance of bones (BONE AND BONES) and teeth (TOOTH).

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine). DNA, Double-Stranded,Deoxyribonucleic Acid,ds-DNA,DNA, Double Stranded,Double-Stranded DNA,ds DNA
D004731 Endotoxins Toxins closely associated with the living cytoplasm or cell wall of certain microorganisms, which do not readily diffuse into the culture medium, but are released upon lysis of the cells. Endotoxin
D005260 Female Females
D006097 Granulation Tissue A vascular connective tissue formed on the surface of a healing wound, ulcer, or inflamed tissue. It consists of new capillaries and an infiltrate containing lymphoid cells, macrophages, and plasma cells. Granulation Tissues,Tissue, Granulation,Tissues, Granulation
D006909 Hydroxyproline A hydroxylated form of the imino acid proline. A deficiency in ASCORBIC ACID can result in impaired hydroxyproline formation. Oxyproline,4-Hydroxyproline,cis-4-Hydroxyproline,4 Hydroxyproline,cis 4 Hydroxyproline
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
