Some mechanisms of neuronal degeneration in endotoxinemia are already well described, but need to be detailed. In this study, we tested the effect of a single intraperitoneal injection of a LPS sub-septic dose (1 mg/kg of animal weight) on calpain activity in the striatum and hippocampus. We showed, that in the hippocampus the day after LPS administration an increase in production of IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA, followed by elevated mRNA expression and activity of µ- and m-calpains without signs of microglia activation is observed.
