Abstract:Background
Sepsis is a type of life-threatening organ dysfunction that is caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. The lung is the most vulnerable target organ under septic conditions. Pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) play a critical role in acute lung injury (ALI) caused by severe sepsis. The impairment of PMVECs during sepsis is a complex regulatory process involving multiple mechanisms, in which the imbalance of calcium (Ca2+) homeostasis of endothelial cells is a k… Show more
