In 9 rabbits the effect of intravenous administration of E. coli pyrogen 0.5 microgram/kg on the reaction of selective brain cooling was studied at ambient temperatures of 20, 30 and 40 degrees C. In the freely moving animals the temperatures of the brain, carotid artery and nuchal muscles were measured with an accuracy down to 0.05 degree C and the temperatures of the ear pinna and nasal mucosa were measured accurate to 0.5 degree C. The respiratory rate was measured as well. It was found that the spontaneous febrile reaction without the component of passive hyperthermia failed to cause selective brain cooling, even if its temperature reached higher values than in case of brain temperature rise caused only by high ambient temperature. On the other hand, when the high ambient temperature caused thermal panting, pyrogen administration at an ambient temperature of 30 degrees C could reduce panting, while at an ambient temperature of 40 degrees C intense panting initiated prior to the appearance of the febrile reaction and was associated with the fever and outlasted it. 相似文献

At standard laboratory ambient temperatures (T(a)) of 20-24 degrees C, peripheral injections of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) reliably produce fever in young rats. In contrast, old rats may show a blunted fever, no fever, or even hypothermia after LPS. In the present study we hypothesized that old rats might use behavioral thermoregulation to help them develop a fever. Young and old rats were implanted with temperature transmitters. At least 1 wk postoperatively they were placed in a thermally graded alleyway (T(a) 10-40 degrees C). On the third and sixth day they were taken out of the gradient, placed at an T(a) of 23 degrees C, injected intraperitoneally with LPS or saline, and left at 23 degrees C for 3 h. At the end of that time, all young rats had become febrile, whereas the old rats had not. When the rats were replaced in the thermal gradient, the young animals continued to develop a fever that was similar to fever in young rats left at 23 degrees C. The old animals chose significantly warmer positions in the thermal gradient than did the young animals and only then became febrile. Although there was a tendency for the young rats to prefer higher T(a) after LPS than after saline, these differences were not significant. However, the differences in the old rats were significant. These results suggest that the LPS had increased the thermal set point in the old rats, but they could develop febrile responses only at the warm T(a) they selected. 相似文献

Changes of abdominal temperature in response to intraperitoneal injections of 100 μg/kg bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), repeated three times in intervals of 3 days were measured in rats. Only after the first injection of LPS a pronounced fever developed, a small fever was recorded after the second injection, while the response to the 3rd injection of LPS was almost the same as to an administration of solvent (0.9 % saline) to naive rats. Levels of bioactive cytokines (tumor necrosis factor α, TNFα, and interleukin-6, IL-6), measured 60 min after the 1st, 2nd or 3rd injection of LPS, were progressively attenuated. Changes of abdominal temperature in response to intraperitoneal injections of recombinant rat-interleukin-1β (rr IL-1β), also repeated three times in intervals of 3 days were measured in another group of rats. The febrile responses to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd injection of rr IL-1β were amost identical. The results of this study show that febrile tolerance develops in response to repeated injections of LPS, but not of its putative endogenous mediator, IL-1β, in rats. 相似文献

Temperature probes were inserted into the stomachs of juvenile American alligators (Alligator mississippiensis) maintained outdoors at ambient fluctuating temperatures. Internal body temperatures (T(b)) were measured every 15 min for two days, and then the alligators were injected with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), pyrogen-free saline, or left untreated. Alligators injected intraperitoneally with LPS exhibited maximum T(b)s 2.6+/-1.1 degrees C and 3.5+/-1.2 degrees C higher than untreated control animals on days one and two after treatment, respectively. T(b)s for these animals fell to within control ranges by day three postinjection. Similarly, mean preferred body temperatures (MPBTs) were significantly higher for LPS-injected alligators on days one (4.2+/-1.8 degrees C) and two (3.5+/-1.6 degrees C) after treatment. Intraperitoneal injection of heat-killed Aeromonas hydrophila, a gram-negative bacterium known to infect crocodilians, resulted in a fever while injection of Staphylococcus aureus (gram positive) did not elicit a febrile response. Injection of LPS in alligators maintained indoors in a constant temperature environment resulted in no increase in internal T(b). These results indicate that alligators did not exhibit a febrile response in the absence of a thermal gradient, and suggest that febrile responses observed are probably behavioral in nature. 相似文献

It is known that heating the ram scrotum stimulates heat loss resulting in a decrease in body temperature and that during fever core temperature increases, but local scrotal thermoeffectors operate to maintain normal scrotal temperature. We have investigated whether scrotal warming influences core body temperature and the panting effector during fever generation. We measured rectal temperature, intrascrotal temperature, scrotal skin temperature and respiratory frequency in four adult Merino rams following intravascular injection of saline or lipopolysaccharide at an ambient temperature of 18-20 degrees C while scrotal skin temperature was maintained at 33 degrees C or elevated to 41 degrees C. Compared to maintaining normal scrotal temperature, heating the scrotum increased respiratory frequency and reduced rectal temperature by a similar amount following LPS as following saline. Fever was associated with decreased respiratory frequency compared to saline at both 33 and 41 degrees C scrotal temperature, suggesting that the fever was generated mainly by decreasing respiratory heat loss. We conclude that scrotal thermal afferent stimulation resulted in an offset for the set-point of body temperature regulation in both normothermic and febrile rams. 相似文献

When the core temperature stabilizes at a hyperthermic level after iv injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the threshold core temperature for cutaneous vasoconstriction (Thcv) is significantly increased in hot and neutral environments, while the threshold core temperature for shivering (Thsh) is not significantly altered in hot or cold environments but is significantly reduced at thermoneutrality. This type of dissociated threshold alterations of thermoregulatory effector responses seems to be typical for the febrile response of rabbits to LPS. Because the same threshold dissociation can be demonstrated after icv injection of LPS, the systemic and the central effects of LPS in the generation of fever seem to be mediated by identical mechanisms. Prostaglandins of the E series (PGE), one of the mediators considered as important in fever generation, cause parallel increases in Thcv and Thsh when injected icv. This indicates that the mode of action of PGE on the central targets producing hyperthermia differs from that of the ensemble of mediators involved in the generation of LPS fever in rabbits. In rabbits pretreated with aspirin, the threshold dissociation after iv LPS injection still occurs. This indicates that factors other than PGE play an important role in the generation of the threshold dissociation of thermoregulatory effector responses, which is typical for LPS fever. These data indicate also that the states of activity of the thermoregulatory effectors involved in the febrile responses can be altered individually and that the activities of these effectors during LPS fever are quite different from their activities in the control state. 相似文献

In unanaesthetized adult rabbits an intravenous dose of E. coli endotoxin evoked a febrile rise in colonic temperature at ambient temperatures of 9 to 31 degrees C. The rise in colonic temperature and oxygen consumption did not depend on the ambient temperature, while, among the heat loss effectors, in warmer environments only the depression of respiratory heat loss and in cooler environments only ear skin vasoconstriction contributed to the febrile rise in colonic temperature. In moderately warm environments the endotoxin first induced a maximum inhibition of respiratory frequency and this was followed by vasoconstriction. Later, a transient rise in oxygen consumption occurred. During defervescence the timing of the effectors was reversed. The results showed that a febrile response is not necessarily characterized by simultaneous changes in the thermoregulatory effector mechanisms. 相似文献

Previous studies on the role of cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and -2 in fever induced by intravenous LPS have failed to investigate the role of these isoenzymes in the earliest responses: monophasic fever (response to a low, near-threshold dose of LPS) and the first phase of polyphasic fever (response to higher doses). We studied these responses in 96 mice that were COX-1 or COX-2 deficient (-/-) or sufficient (+/+). Each mouse was implanted with a temperature telemetry probe into the peritoneal cavity and a jugular catheter. The study was conducted at a tightly controlled, neutral ambient temperature (31 degrees C). To avoid stress hyperthermia (which masks the onset of fever), all injections were performed through a catheter extension. The +/+ mice responded to intravenous saline with no change in deep body temperature. To a low dose of LPS (1 microg/kg iv), they responded with a monophasic fever. To a higher dose (56 microg/kg), they responded with a polyphasic fever. Neither monophasic fever nor the first phase of polyphasic fever was attenuated in the COX-1 -/- mice, but both responses were absent in the COX-2 -/- mice. The second and third phases of polyphasic fever were also missing in the COX-2 -/- mice. The present study identifies a new, critical role for COX-2 in the mediation of the earliest responses to intravenous LPS: monophasic fever and the first phase of polyphasic fever. It also suggests that no product of the COX-1 gene, including the splice variant COX-1b (COX-3), is essential for these responses. 相似文献

We reported previously that the onset of LPS-induced fever, irrespective of its route of administration, is temporally correlated with the appearance of LPS in the liver and that splenectomy significantly increases both the febrile response to LPS and the uptake of LPS by Kupffer cells (KC). To further evaluate the role of the spleen in LPS fever production, we ligated the splenic vein and, 7 and 30 days later, monitored the core temperature changes over 6 h after intraperitoneal (ip) injection of LPS (2 microg/kg). Both the febrile response and the uptake of LPS by KC were significantly augmented. Like splenectomy, splenic vein ligation (SVL) increased the febrile response and LPS uptake by KC until the collateral circulation developed, suggesting that the spleen may normally contribute an inhibitory factor that limits KC uptake of LPS and thus affects the febrile response. Subsequently, to verify the presence of this factor, we prepared splenic extracts from guinea pigs pretreated with LPS (8 microg/kg ip) or pyrogen-free saline, homogenized and ultrafiltered them, and injected them intravenously into splenectomized (Splex) guinea pigs pretreated with LPS (8 microg/kg ip). The results confirmed our presumption that the splenic extract from LPS-treated guinea pigs inhibits the exaggerated febrile response and the LPS uptake by the liver of Splex guinea pigs, indicating the presence of a putative splenic inhibitory factor, confirming the participation of the spleen in LPS-induced fever, and suggesting the existence of a novel antihyperpyretic mechanism. Preliminary data indicate that this factor is a lipid. 相似文献

This study evaluated the participation of mu-opioid-receptor activation in body temperature (T(b)) during normal and febrile conditions (including activation of heat conservation mechanisms) and in different pathways of LPS-induced fever. The intracerebroventricular treatment of male Wistar rats with the selective opioid mu-receptor-antagonist cyclic d-Phe-Cys-Try-d-Trp-Arg-Thr-Pen-Thr-NH(2) (CTAP; 0.1-1.0 microg) reduced fever induced by LPS (5.0 microg/kg) but did not change T(b) at ambient temperatures of either 20 degrees C or 28 degrees C. The subcutaneous, intracerebroventricular, and intrahypothalamic injection of morphine (1.0-10.0 mg/kg, 3.0-30.0 microg, and 1-100 ng, respectively) produced a dose-dependent increase in T(b). Intracerebroventricular morphine also produced a peripheral vasoconstriction. Both effects were abolished by CTAP. CTAP (1.0 microg icv) reduced the fever induced by intracerebroventricular administration of TNF-alpha (250 ng), IL-6 (300 ng), CRF (2.5 microg), endothelin-1 (1.0 pmol), and macrophage inflammatory protein (500 pg) and the first phase of the fever induced by PGF(2alpha) (500.0 ng) but not the fever induced by IL-1beta (3.12 ng) or PGE(2) (125.0 ng) or the second phase of the fever induced by PGF(2alpha). Morphine-induced fever was not modified by the cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor indomethacin (2.0 mg/kg). In addition, morphine injection did not induce the expression of COX-2 in the hypothalamus, and CTAP did not modify PGE(2) levels in cerebrospinal fluid or COX-2 expression in the hypothalamus after LPS injection. In conclusion, our results suggest that LPS and endogenous pyrogens (except IL-1beta and prostaglandins) recruit the opioid system to cause a mu-receptor-mediated fever. 相似文献

Golden-mantled ground squirrels (Spermophilus lateralis) undergo seasonal hibernation during which core body temperature (T(b)) values are maintained 1-2 degrees C above ambient temperature. Hibernation is not continuous. Squirrels arouse at approximately 7-day intervals, during which T(b) increases to 37 degrees C for approximately 16 h; thereafter, they return to hibernation and sustain low T(b)s until the next arousal. Over the course of the hibernation season, arousals consume 60-80% of a squirrel's winter energy budget, but their functional significance is unknown and disputed. Host-defense mechanisms appear to be downregulated during the hibernation season and preclude normal immune responses. These experiments assessed immune function during hibernation and subsequent periodic arousals. The acute-phase response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was arrested during hibernation and fully restored on arousal to normothermia. LPS injection (ip) resulted in a 1-1.5 degrees C fever in normothermic animals that was sustained for > 8 h. LPS was without effect in hibernating squirrels, neither inducing fever nor provoking arousal, but a fever did develop several days later, when squirrels next aroused from hibernation; the duration of this arousal was increased sixfold above baseline values. Intracerebroventricular infusions of prostaglandin E(2) provoked arousal from hibernation and induced fever, suggesting that neural signaling pathways that mediate febrile responses are functional during hibernation. Periodic arousals may activate a dormant immune system, which can then combat pathogens that may have been introduced immediately before or during hibernation. 相似文献

We injected old and young rats with lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 50 microg/kg ip) at two ambient temperatures (Ta; 21 and 31 degrees C). Young rats mounted equivalent fevers at both Tas [peak body temperatures (Tb) of 38.3 and 38.7 degrees C, respectively]. The Tb of old rats was not different from baseline (37.3 degrees C) after LPS at Ta 21 degrees C, whereas, at 31 degrees C, their Tb rose to a mean peak of 38.4 degrees C. We also measured the associated thermoregulatory responses by use of calorimetry. At 21 degrees C, young rats developed a fever by increasing both O2 consumption and heat conservation. Old rats did not become febrile, and O2 consumption fell by 15%. Heat loss was the same in old and young rats. At 31 degrees C, young and old rats developed similar fevers with similar increases in heat production and conservation. Our results suggest that the lack of LPS fever in old rats at 21 degrees C is due mainly to the lowered metabolic rate. 相似文献

The febrile responses of Sprague-Dawley rats to semi-purified human endogenous pyrogen were studied at a thermoneutral ambient temperature (26 degrees C) and in the cold (3 degrees C). It was found that while rats developed typical monophasic febrile responses at thermoneutrality, febrile responses were absent in the cold-exposed rats. Experiments were conducted to determine whether this lack of febrile responses in cold-exposed rats was due to an inability of these animals to generate or retain heat in the cold. Thermogenesis and vasoconstriction were stimulated in cold-exposed rats by selectively cooling the hypothalamus, using chronically implanted thermodes. It was shown that, using this stimulus, metabolic rate could be increased by more than 50 percent and body temperature could be driven up at a rate of 5 degrees C/hour in rats exposed to the cold. Therefore, it was concluded that the lack of febrile responses of cold-exposed rats to pyrogen is in no way due to a physical or physiological inability to retain heat. Instead, it appears that in some manner cold exposure suppresses the sensitivity or responsiveness of the rat to pyrogenic stimuli. 相似文献

To test whether baboons are capable of implementing selective brain cooling, we measured, every 5 min, the temperature in their hypothalamus, carotid arterial bloodstream, and abdominal cavity. The baboons were unrestrained and exposed to 22 degrees C for 7 days and then to a cyclic environment with 15 degrees C at night and 35 degrees C during the day for a further 7 days. During the latter 7 days some of the baboons also were exposed to radiant heat during the day. For three days, during heat exposure, water was withheld. At no time was the hypothalamus cooler than carotid arterial blood, despite brain temperatures above 40 degrees C. With little variation, the hypothalamus was consistently 0.5 degrees C warmer than arterial blood. At high body temperatures, the hypothalamus was sometimes cooler than the abdomen. Abdominal temperature was more variable than arterial blood and tended to exceed arterial blood temperature at higher body temperatures. Hypothalamic temperature cooler than a warm abdomen is not evidence for selective brain cooling. In species that can implement selective brain cooling, the brain is most likely to be cooler than carotid arterial blood when an animal is hyperthermic, during heat exposure, and also dehydrated and undisturbed by human presence. When we exposed baboons to high ambient temperatures while they were water deprived and undisturbed, they never implemented selective brain cooling. We conclude that baboons cannot implement selective brain cooling and can find no convincing evidence that any primate species can do so. 相似文献

Guinea pigs with anteroventral third ventricle region (AV3V) lesions fail to develop fever and the associated rise in acute-phase plasma protein levels following systemic injections of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Since endogenous pyrogen (EP) injected directly into the preoptic area of animals with AV3V lesions causes appropriate elevations in core temperature (Tco) and acute-phase plasma proteins levels, the blocked responses to LPS probably are not due to damage to the adjacent preoptic area. We proposed, therefore, that EP may pass from blood into brain in the AV3V, presumably through the organum vasculosum laminae terminalis. However, the possibility that a more generalized impairment due to damaged pathways within the AV3V could account for the observed effects was not examined. To investigate this possibility, guinea pigs were given AV3V lesions. Pending histological verification of the ablated sites, AV3V lesions were presumed to be placed correctly if the animals did not develop fever following LPS (Salmonella enteritidis, 2 micrograms/kg i.p., at ambient temperature (Ta) 22 degrees C); those failing to meet this criterion were designated as sham-operated. Two experiments were conducted. In the first, metabolic rates, Tco, and two skin temperatures (Tsk) were measured at Ta 12 degrees, 22 degrees, and 32 degrees C over an 8-month postlesion period during which failure to fever persisted; the data were collected during a 30-min period after thermal balance had been achieved at any given Ta. There were no differences in the variables measured between sham-operated and AV3V-lesioned animals at Ta 22 degrees C.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Prostaglandins appear to be mediators, within the hypothalamus, of heat production and conservation during fever. We have investigated a possible role of prostaglandins in the nonfebrile rabbit during thermoregulation in the cold. Shorn rabbits were placed in an environment of 20 degrees C, and rectal and ear skin temperatures, shivering and respiratory rates were measured. A continuous intravenous infusion of leucocyte pyrogen was given to establish a constant fever of approximately 1 degree C, and after observation of a stable febrile temperature for 90 min, a single injection of 300 mg of sodium salicylate, followed by a 1.5 mg/min infusion was then given. After the salicylate infusion was begun, rectal temperature began to fall, and reached nonfebrile levels within 90 min. Shivering activity ceased, respiratory rates increased, and in two animals, ear skin temperature increased. When these same rabbits were placed in an environment of 10 degrees C, at a time they were not febrile, and an identical amount of salicylate was given, rectal and ear skin temperatures, shivering and respiratory rates did not change. These results indicate that prostagladins do not appear to be involved in heat production and conservation in the nonfebrile rabbit. 相似文献

To study the mechanism of action of physical antipyresis, core temperature was measured in two groups of rats in which heat loss was increased by cold exposure and by cooling an inferior cava heat exchanger, respectively, both before and after infection with Salmonella enteritidis. Cold exposure did not influence core temperature. On the other hand, cooling the heat exchanger caused a fall in core temperature of approximately 0.7 degree C, to 37 degrees C in normothermia and to 38.5 degrees C 24 h after the infection. These lower core temperatures were then regulated against any further increase in heat loss until the thermoregulatory metabolic capacity of the animals was exhausted and a hypothermia developed. It is concluded that in infectious fever the threshold temperature of shivering increases as much as core temperature. Furthermore it is suggested that physical antipyresis, such as sponging with tepid water, induces a moderate but regulated fall in temperature to about the threshold of shivering and that its efficacy may increase with ambient temperature. 相似文献

Role of nitric oxide in tolerance to lipopolysaccharide in mice. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The injection of repeated doses of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) results in attenuation of the febrile response, which is called endotoxin tolerance. We tested the hypothesis that nitric oxide (NO) arising from inducible NO synthase (iNOS) plays a role in endotoxin tolerance, using not only pharmacological trials but also genetically engineered mice. Body core temperature was measured by biotelemetry in mice treated with NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA, 40 mg/kg; a nonselective NO synthase inhibitor) or aminoguanidine (AG, 10 mg/kg; a selective iNOS inhibitor) and in mice deficient in the iNOS gene (iNOS KO) mice. Tolerance to LPS was induced by means of three consecutive LPS (100 microg/kg) intraperitoneal injections at 24-h intervals. In wild-type mice, we observed a significant reduction of the febrile response to repeated administration of LPS. Injection of L-NMMA and AG markedly enhanced the febrile response to LPS in tolerant animals. Conversely, iNOS-KO mice repeatedly injected with LPS did not become tolerant to the pyrogenic effect of LPS. These data are consistent with the notion that NO modulates LPS tolerance in mice and that iNOS isoform is involved in NO synthesis during LPS tolerance. 相似文献

The febrile responses of splenectomized (Splex) or sham-operated (Sham) guinea pigs challenged intravenously or intraperitoneally with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 7 and 30 days after surgery were evaluated. FITC-LPS uptake by Kupffer cells (KC) was additionally assessed 15, 30, and 60 min after injection. LPS at 0.05 microg/kg iv did not evoke fever in Sham animals but caused a 1.2 degrees C core temperature (T(c)) rise in the Splex animals. LPS at 2 microg/kg iv induced a 1.8 degrees C greater T(c) rise of the Splex animals than of their controls. LPS at 2 and 8 microg/kg ip 7 days postsurgery induced 1.4 and 1.8 degrees C higher fevers, respectively, in the Splex than Sham animals. LPS at 2 and 8 microg/kg ip 30 days postsurgery also increased the febrile responses of the asplenic animals by 1.6 and 1.8 degrees C, respectively. FITC-LPS at 7 days was detected in the controls within KC 15 min after its administration; the label density was reduced at 30 min and almost 0 at 60 min. In the Splex group, in contrast, the labeling was significantly denser and remained unchanged through all three time points; this effect was still present 30 days after surgery. Similar results were obtained at 60 min after FITC-LPS intraperitoneal injection. Gadolinium chloride pretreatment (-3 days) of the Splex group significantly reduced both their febrile responses to LPS (8 microg/kg ip) and their KC uptake of FITC-LPS 7 days postsurgery. Thus splenectomy increases the magnitude of the febrile response of guinea pigs and the uptake of systemically administered LPS. 相似文献

The effects of high hemoglobin-oxygen affinity (HOA) on rectal temperature and lipid free radical oxidation were investigated in red blood cells, heart, liver and kidneys of male rats during fever. Fever was induced by intraperitoneal injection of Salmonella typhi lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 5.0 mg kg(-1)). HOA was increased by addition of 0.5% sodium cyanate to drinking water for eight weeks. HOA modification (actual half-saturation oxygen pressure, P50act, decreased to 23.3+/-0.7 vs. 31.6+/-0.7 Torr in control; p < 0.001) weakened a febrile response: rise of temperature after 4 hours was 0.79+/-0.2 degrees C vs. 1.38+/-0.1 degrees C in rats with normal HOA (p < 0.05). In red cells and tissues of rats with normal HOA, concentrations of conjugated dienes and Schiff bases increased during fever, and alpha-tocopherol level and catalase activity decreased. Rats with increased HOA had an inverse pattern of such changes. Changes in rectal temperature and markers of free radical oxidation correlated with a shift of oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve leftwards. The present results indicate that the intentional increment of HOA may substantially diminish lipid peroxidation activity, increase the body antioxidant content during fever and decrease the febrile response on LPS. 相似文献
