Severe toxemia of pregnancy is associated with hypercoagulability and hyperlipemia in general. Heparin, a substance having an anticoagulant action and a lipemia-clearing action, was used clinically, and the changes induced by the heparin administration were examined. The GI value was significantly improved. The body weight showed a tendency to decrease. Fibrinogen tended to be decreased. The urine volume was significantly increased. Histologic observations on the placenta gave the impression that fibrin deposition in the placental tissue had been decreased by heparin.

Introduction: Endotoxemia is a common issue for patients with biliary obstruction. The lung is the most affected organ by endotoxins. Exercise training can alleviate lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced lung inflammation and resveratrol has biological effects similar to exercise.

Article Synopsis
- - Sepsis is a serious condition characterized by inflammation and cell death, often leading to multiple organ failure, requiring quick medical attention; lipopolysaccharide (LPS) triggers inflammatory responses through specific receptors like TLR-2.
- - The study explores the role of melatonin (MEL) in reducing lung injury caused by LPS-induced septic shock in rats, highlighting its potential to lower the expressions of inflammatory markers NEK7, TLR2, and NLRP3.
- - Results showed that melatonin treatment reduced lung tissue damage, cell infiltration, and wall thickening, indicating that it may provide therapeutic benefits in managing sepsis-related acute lung injury.
Angiopoietin-1 attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced endotoxemia in a Hirschsprung's disease murine model by improving intestinal vascular integrity: implications for treating postoperative Hirschsprung-associated enterocolitis.

Purpose: Angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) mitigates inflammation as a proangiogenic growth factor. Action of Ang1 on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxemic inflammation was investigated in endothelin receptor-B null Hirschsprung's disease mice (KO).
Methods: LPS or saline was injected intraperitoneally in KO (KO-LPS; n = 9, KO-sal; n = 5) and wild-type (WT) (WT-LPS; n = 6, WT-sal; n = 6) pups obtained within 24 h of birth.
Caspase-11 signaling promotes damage to hippocampal CA3 to enhance cognitive dysfunction in infection.

Background: Cognitive dysfunction caused by infection frequently emerges as a complication in sepsis survivor patients. However, a comprehensive understanding of its pathogenesis remains elusive.
Methods: In our in vivo experiments, an animal model of endotoxemia was employed, utilizing the Novel Object Recognition Test and Morris Water Maze Test to assess cognitive function.
