[Changes in the blood lipid pattern in experimental poisoning with lipopolysaccharides of E. coli O 127].

After a short notice on the relations between the endotoxine and lipydic metabolism the AA. refer on the inquiry on 60 animals divided in three groups according to the dosis of the injected endotoxin. The dosis were 0.010-1-5 mg of the lypopolisaccaride from E. coli O-127; seven animals were appointed as controls. In the all animals were examined proofs of blood after 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 hours from the start of experience. The total lipids, the triglycerides, the phospholypids, the NEFA, the free and esterified cholesterol were doses. The data of lethality and the value of determinations of the single fractions obtained were registered. In the all experienced animals, independently from the injected dosis, an independently from the injected dosis, an increase of the lypidic fractions was remarked: the free fatty acids were the first to rise, suived by triglycerides and phospholypids and denn by the two fractions of cholesterol. The highest dosis of endotoxine have comported a blok in the esterification of cholesterol. This early and persistent hiperlypemie can be caused initially by increased incretion of catecolamine.
