Contribution of Connexin Hemichannels to the Pathogenesis of Acute Lung Injury

Mediators of Inflammation, 2020
Connexin (Cx) family members form hemichannels (HCs) and gap junctions (GJs). Biological functions of Cx HCs have not been adequately characterized due to the inability to selectively target HCs or GJs. Recently, we developed a 6-mer peptide mimetic (P5)

Female-Specific Association of Plasma N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide With Organ Dysfunction and Prognosis in Sepsis: A Retrospective Study

Critical Care Explorations, 2021
Objectives:. The plasma level of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide is regulated by sex hormones. It has been controversial whether N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide is a prognosis marker for sepsis.

Sesamin attenuates intestinal injury in sepsis via the HMGB1/TLR4/IL-33 signalling pathway

Pharmaceutical Biology, 2020
Context Sepsis is currently one of the leading causes of death in intensive care units (ICUs). Sesamin was previously reported to inhibit inflammation. However, no studies have revealed the impact of sesamin on sepsis.

Evaluation of updated sepsis scoring systems and systemic inflammatory response syndrome criteria and their association with sepsis in equine neonates [PDF]

, 2018
BackgroundThe original equine sepsis score provided a method of identifying foals with sepsis. New variables associated with sepsis have been evaluated, but the sepsis score has not been updated.ObjectivesTo evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of 2 ...

Developing a New Definition and Assessing New Clinical Criteria for Septic Shock: For the Third International Consensus Definitions for Sepsis and Septic Shock (Sepsis-3).

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2016
IMPORTANCE Septic shock currently refers to a state of acute circulatory failure associated with infection. Emerging biological insights and reported variation in epidemiology challenge the validity of this definition.

Inhibition of Intestinal Thiamin Transport in Rat Model of Sepsis. [PDF]

, 2016
ObjectivesThiamin deficiency is highly prevalent in patients with sepsis, but the mechanism by which sepsis induces thiamin deficiency is unknown. This study aimed to determine the influence of various severity of sepsis on carrier-mediated intestinal ...

Biomarkers for sepsis: more than just fever and leukocytosis—a narrative review

Critical Care, 2022
A biomarker describes a measurable indicator of a patient's clinical condition that can be measured accurately and reproducibly. Biomarkers offer utility for diagnosis, prognosis, early disease recognition, risk stratification, appropriate treatment ...
