The innate immune system differentially regulates the expression of host defense peptides to combat infection during wound healing. We enhanced the expression of a host defense peptide, human beta defensin-3 (hBD-3), in keratinocytes to generate a th

BACKGROUND: : Anemia in burn patients is due to surgical blood loss and anemia of critical illness. Because the commitment paradigm of common bone marrow progenitors dictates the production of erythroid, myeloid, and lymphoid cells, we hypothesized t

When skin is compromised, a cascade of signals initiates the rapid repair of the epidermis to prevent fluid loss and provide defense against invading microbes. During this response, keratinocytes produce host defense peptides (HDPs) that have antimic

Sepsis caused by multidrug-resistant bacterial infections in critically injured patients has become a major clinical problem. Recently, Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) wound infections, especially in our critically injured soldiers fighting in Iraq and

Despite improvements in the early resuscitation of the critically injured, mortality from multiple organ failure has remained stable, with the lung often the first organ to fail. Early intubation and mechanical ventilation predispose patients to the

Background: The production of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), the lineage specific essential regulator of neutrophil progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation, has been thought to be impaired in the setting of burn infection. T

The production and release of granulocytes and macrophages, crucial elements of the host defense system, are significantly impaired after burn injury and sepsis. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is known to be myelosuppressive. We hypothesized that the macrop

Background: Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is a key enzyme in the production of prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 ) from activated macrophages. PGE 2 is increased during trauma and sepsis and has been implicated as a negative immunomodulator. The objective of this

Prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 ) is significantly elevated in the plasma of septic or injured patients and is thought to be a component of the resultant immune suppression associated with augmented rates of infection and mortality. Many studies have examin

Suppressed granulocyte and macrophage growth after burn infection or endotoxicosis appears to be mediated by macrophage-derived products. In this study, we found that after burn, burn plus infection, or endotoxicosis, peritoneal-elicited macrophages
