Abstract:
:In an attempt to evaluate effects of bacterial endotoxin on systemic fungal infection, experimental systemic Aspergillus infection was induced in leukemic mice (AKR strain) with (Group B) or without (Group A) preceding intraperitoneal administration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa derived lipopolysaccharides. All mice in group A died within 4 days after intravenous inoculation of Aspergillus fumigatus spores and developed extensive and disseminated fungal lesions without inflammatory reactions. In contrast, 5 of 10 mice in group B were alive at day 4 and 1 mouse in group B was alive when the experiment was terminated on the 14th day. These mice showed less extensive fungal lesions with definite, albeit minimal, inflammatory reactions which were composed of macrophages and neutrophils. In addition, serum iron levels and iron saturation rates were significantly lower in mice in group B than in group A. These results indicate that P. aeruginosa endotoxin has a deterring effect on systemic Aspergillus infection in leukemic mice.
