Chemical specificity of endotoxin-induced c-fos expressing neurons in the rat hypothalamus
It has been shown that intravenous (i.v.) injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a powerful endotoxin derived from the outer coat of gram-negative bacteria, results in a dose- and time-dependent expression of the proto-oncogene c-fos in the brain. In particular, the region of the paraventricular nuc...
