Impaired in vivo antibody production in CRF rats: role of secondary hyperparathyroidism.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Endotoxin is an important factor in the development of acute renal failure related to infection and in acceleration of chronic nephritis. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS; the major component of endotoxin) is one of the most potent triggers for renal cells to produce monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), a key ...
