Antibiotic-induced Bacterial Toxin Release – Inhibition by Protein Synthesis Inhibitors

Antibiotic-induced Bacterial Toxin Release – Inhibition by Protein Synthesis Inhibitors

Toxic products, such as endotoxin from the gram-negative and exotoxin from the gram-positive bacteria, are the most important initiators of the inflammatory host response in sepsis. In addition to antibacterial treatment, numerous attempts have been made to interfere with the exaggerated proinflamma...
