lysozyme, a mediator of sepsis that intrinsically generates hydrogen peroxide to cause cardiovascular dysfunction. | in septic shock, cardiovascular collapse is caused by the release of inflammatory mediators. we previously found that lysozyme (lzm-s), released from leukocytes, contributed to the myocardial depression and arterial vasodilation that develop in canine models of septic shock. to cause vasodilation, lzm-s generates hydrogen peroxide (h(2)o(2)) that activates the smooth muscle soluble guanylate cyclase (sgc) pathway, although the mechanism of h(2)o(2) generation is not known. to cause myocardial de ... | 2009 | 19542485 |
mycoflora in commercial pet foods. | this article reports on the identification of mycoflora of 21 dry pet foods (12 belonging to dogs and 9 to cats) that corresponded to 8 commercial brands made in argentina and imported. the isolation frequency and relative density of the prevalent fungal genera are compared too. ten genera and fungi classified as mycelia sterilia were identified. the predominant genera were aspergillus (62%), rhizopus (48%), and mucor (38%). the most prevalent among aspergillus was aspergillus flavus followed by ... | 2001 | 11348013 |
