“…Alkaline phosphatase may act like an acute phase protein, where high levels of physiological active alkaline phosphatase have a protective anti-inflammatory effect. The preoperative plasma levels may predict clinical outcome in acute inflammation in a manner similar to that reported for high plasma anti-endotoxin antibody levels (24,25). Patients might thus be protected by pretreatment with physiological active alkaline phosphatase which will elevate their endogenous physiological levels.…”

“…To our knowledge, it has not been reported previously that type 8 pneumococci can trigger IL-8 release or that IL-8 release can be regulated by type-specific antibodies to pneumococci. However, there is precedent for antibody-mediated downregulation of cellular IL-8 secretion by MAbs to a herpes simplex virus glycoprotein (44) and endotoxin (38). Downregulation of IL-8 has been implicated as a mechanism to dampen the inflammatory response to pneumococci (25), and a MAb to IL-8 (30) was shown to reduce the inflammatory response to experimental pneumococcal meningitis.…”
