ScienceDaily () -- Scientists have found that chemicals called endotoxins can inflame airways and trigger asthma. Endotoxins are shed by bacteria in household dust. Experts say better home hygiene, washing bed linens in hot water at least once a week, and using allergen-prevention pillow cases and mattress covers can reduce the risk of asthma attacks.

A Blog by HEIRS on Health Education, Information and Support Resources
This blog provides information and resources for healthier living, wellness and a number of health topics including specific medical conditions. It is also a resource for conditions commonly considered to be environmental illnesses including CFS, FM, PTSD, obesity, diabetes, insulin resistance, MCS, heart disease, and a number of other conditions that are potentiated by contaminants in the air, soil and water including autism, sick building syndrome and sickness behavior just to name a few. This blog will try to focus on less scientific and more real-world news and application.

CiteULike: Hyperammonemia acts synergistically with lipopolysaccharide in inducing changes in cerebral hemodynamics in rats anaesthetised with pentobarbital.
"the synergistic effect of NH(3) and LPS seems mediated by other amiloride-sensitive-ion-pathways in the BBB than the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger."

Hydrogen Sulfide, Cigarette Smoke, Endotoxin and Particulate Matter -- The Toxic Effects They Have In Common!
Hydrogen Sulfide, Cigarette Smoke, Endotoxin and Particulate Matter -- The Toxic Effects They Have In Common!: "Different chemicals have different modes of toxicity which can possibly reduces or be additive or potentiate the effects of the others and alter other metabolic processes such as insulin release and activities of Nrf2 cell signaling. Take four example the four toxicants endotoxin, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), cigarette smoke and particulate matter that are all common in the environment and can cause"
