Targeting Cytokines, Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns, and Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns in Sepsis via Blood Purification

Abstract: Sepsis is characterized by a dysregulated immune response to infections that causes life-threatening organ dysfunction and even death. When infections occur, bacterial cell wall components (endotoxin or lipopolysaccharide), known as pathogen-associated molecular patterns, bind to pattern recognition receptors, such as toll-like receptors, to initiate an inflammatory response for pathogen elimination. However, strong activation of the immune system leads to cellular dysfunction and ultimately organ failure. Dam… Show more

“…In addition to PAMPs, damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) released by injured tissue ( Moriyama and Nishida, 2021 ) can also activate inflammasomes. Multiple DAMPs are identified example are histones, DNA, ATP, reactive oxygen radicals (ROS), heat-shock proteins, and uric acid crystals ( Abderrazak et al, 2015 ).…”

“…During an inflammatory response, the levels of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, TNF-α, IL-8, and IL-1β are elevated, whereas the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-10 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β are reduced. 2,[18][19][20][21][22] This elevation in pro-inflammatory cytokines and reduction in anti-inflammatory cytokines is also notable in sepsis patients. 18 Therefore, an effective strategy to combat sepsis involves the inhibition or reduction of bacterial LPS or inflammatory cytokines.…”
