Are there differences in the composition of the endotoxins coming from the upper GI versus the colon? Is there any way to track some sort of endotoxin molecular signature?
Also, have you guys come to any conclusion as to which process allows endotoxins to exit the bowel - transport or translocation?
Do all endotoxins produce exactly the same immune reaction, or are there differences in the types and ratios of interleukins, cytokines, and interferons?
Thanks.
