Abstract:Sepsis is recognized as a syndrome of systemic inflammatory reaction induced by dysregulation of the body’s immunity against infection. The multiple organ dysfunction associated with sepsis is a serious threat to the patient’s life. Endothelial cell dysfunction has been extensively studied in sepsis.

Macrophages are first-line cells of the immune response, whereas endothelial … Show more
