Peptidoglycans (PG) are cell wall fragments of gram-positive bacteria. The effect of PG on blood pressure, circulating leukocytes, and platelets was studied in a rat model. PG was able to decrease blood pressure and to induce leukopenia and thrombocytopenia. In vitro PG affected leukocyte function and was able to activate the contact activating system.
肽聚糖(PG)是革兰氏阳性菌的细胞壁片段。在大鼠模型中研究了PG对血压、循环白细胞和血小板的影响。PG能够降低血压,并诱导白细胞减少和血小板减少。在体外,PG影响白细胞功能,并能够激活接触激活系统。
