Sepsis is a critical inflammatory condition from which numerous patients die due to multiple organ failure and septic shock. The vasoactive hormone adrenomedullin (AM) and its binding protein (AMBP-1) are beneficial in sepsis by abrogating the progre

Management of trauma victims with uncontrolled hemorrhage remains a major problem in combat casualty care at the far-forward battlefield setting. The neuroendocrine response to hemorrhage is to maintain perfusion to the heart and brain, often at the

Background Recent studies have shown that adrenomedullin (AM) and AM-binding protein-1 (AMBP-1) possess anti-inflammatory properties in sepsis. We hypothesized that administration of AM/AMBP-1 after gut ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) downregulates inflam

Despite advances in the management of sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome, the mortality rate remains high. Delayed apoptosis of neutrophils is associated with multiple organ failure under those conditions. Thus, development of nontoxic ne

Objectives: Severe sepsis is associated with increased total peripheral resistance (TPR) and decreased organ blood flow, in which endothelin-1 ( ET-1 ) plays an important role. Plasma levels of ghrelin, a newly-identified endogenous ligand for growth

Trauma is the leading cause of death in the population between ages 1 to 44 and one of the leading causes of death in those over age 65 in the United States. It results in approximately 150,000 deaths per year.1,2 Most trauma deaths result either fro

Previous studies have shown that the gut is a major source of norepinephrine (NE) released in early sepsis and that gut-derived NE plays an important role in up-regulating TNF-alpha expression in Kupffer cells (KC) via an alpha(2)-adrenoceptor (alpha

Objective The neuroendocrine response to hemorrhage is to maintain perfusion to the heart and brain, often at the expense of other organ systems. Systemic inflammation and tissue injury are important components of pathophysiologic consequences of hem

Ghrelin, a newly identified endogenous ligand for growth hormone secretagogue receptor 1a (GHSR-1a, i.e., ghrelin receptor), was recently demonstrated to be a potent vasoactive peptide. Although sepsis is characterized by an early, hyperdynamic phase
