Abstract
The toxicity of E. Coli endotoxin for mice is significantly altered by the concomitant administration of other hormones. Thyroxin treatment increases toxicity of endotoxin in mice. Serotonin reduces endotoxin mortality in this species. The protective effect is greater in females and is augmented by otherwise silent doses of Compound F.Keywords
