The Effect of Early Application of Synthetic Peptides 19-2.5 and 19-4LF to Improve Survival and Neurological Outcome in a Mouse Model of Cardiac Arrest and Resuscitation
Abstract:The synthetic antimicrobial peptides (sAMPs) Pep19-2.5 and Pep19-4LF have been shown in vitro and in vivo to reduce the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, leading to the suppression of inflammation and immunomodulation. We hypothesized that intervention with Pep19-2.5 and Pep19-4LF immediately after cardiac arrest and resuscitation (CA-CPR) might attenuate immediate systemic inflammation, survival, and long-term outcomes in a standardized mouse model of CA-CPR. Long-term outcomes up to 28 days were assesse… Show more
