We hypothesized that ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury of the liver during normotensive gram-negative bacteremic sepsis alters the kinetics of circulating endotoxin, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and coinduced mediators, thereby exacerbating sepsis-induced lung inflammation. Liver and
BACKGROUND
The nuclear translocation of transcription factors may be a critical factor in the intracellular pathway involved in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB) in the pathogenesis of liver injury induced by
BACKGROUND
The perioperative morbidity and mortality of abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is linked to systemic inflammation. Important triggers of the latter are Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which play a central role in innate immunity. Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury can be influenced by either
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), which is released by activated immune cells and necrotic cells, has properties similar to those of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) induces systemic inflammation and aortic cross-clamping induces myocardial ischemia. This study was conducted
