Cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) is the gold standard model for studying septic shock, which is characterized by hypotension and hyporeactivity to vasoconstrictors. However, approximately 30% of CLP animals do not exhibit cardiovascular changes, requiring more replicates because of the high variability of the model. Therefore, biomarkers enabling the early prediction of cardiovascular collapse in sepsis would greatly benefit sepsis nonclinical studies, refining experimental models and improving clinical translation.

Sepsis and septic shock are associated with high mortality and are considered one of the major public health concerns. The onset of sepsis is known as a hyper-inflammatory state that contributes to organ failure and mortality. Recent findings suggest a potential role of two non-receptor protein tyrosine kinases, namely Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2), in the inflammation associated with endometriosis, cancer, atherosclerosis and asthma.
