Etiology of endotoxin aggression and its role as an obligate pathogenetic factor in iridocyclites of different origins

An excess of intestinal endotoxin and a deficiency of antiendotoxin immunity are necessary components of the pathogenesis of iridocyclites of both viral and unknown origins. Bacteroids, colibacillus, blue pus bacillus, and Proteus are the most common factors in endotoxin aggression. Combined treatment supplemented with an “antiendotoxin component” considerably decreases the incidence of relapses of the disease.

The study showed that a high titer of antibodies to bifidobacteria can serve as a laboratory sign of intestinal dysbacteriosis.Translated from Fiziologiya Cheloveka, Vol. 31, No. 2, 2005, pp. 132–134.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Anikhovskaya, Vyshegurov, Likhoded, Yakovlev.
