Intestinal inflammation and tissue injury in response to heat stress and cooling treatment in mice

Abstract excerpt

Gut-derived endotoxin and pathogenic bacteria have been proposed to be important causative factors of morbidity and mortality due to heat stroke. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the small intestinal lesions caused by heat stroke have yet to be well characterized. In order to verify the possible inflammatory pathogenesis of intestinal tissue injury, a mouse heat stroke model was established. Cooling...
