Abstract

Five days following implantation of a Yoshida sarcoma, female rats developed an increase in plasma fibrinogen concentration and a decrease in the number of platelets. The endotoxin induced fibrinisation of the microcirculation, as measured in percent involvement of glomerula, was found to be five to ten times higher than in control animals. A single injection of endotoxin without infusion was sufficient in tumor bearing animals to induce glomerular capillary thrombosis. The Yoshida sarcoma induced pathophysiological changes with a "preparative" effect on the endotoxin-induced disseminated intravascular coagulation.
