Background: Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by the infection-related host response disorder. Adequate mean arterial pressure is an important prerequisite of tissue and organ perfusion, which runs through the treatment of sepsis patients, and an appropriate mean arterial pressure titration in the early-stage correlates to the positive outcome of the treatment. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to elucidate the relationship between early mean arterial pressure levels and short-term mortality in sepsis patients.

The present study aimed to investigate the potential roles of metabolic reprogramming and the related regulatory mechanism in Dox-resistant OS cells. The results showed that the ATP levels, lactate generation, glucose consumption and oxygen consumption rate were significantly increased in Dox-resistant OS cells compared with parental cells.

Chemotherapy resistance is an important problem for clinical therapy of osteosarcoma (OS). The potential effects of histone deacetylases (HDACs) on OS chemoresistance are studied. The expression of HDACs in OS cells resistance to doxorubicin (Dox) and cisplatin (CDDP) is checked.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFChemotherapy resistance is one of the major challenges for the treatment of osteosarcoma (OS). The potential roles of oestrogenic signals in the chemoresistance of OS cells were investigated. As compare to the parental cells, the doxorubicin and cisplatin (CDDP) resistant OS cells had greater levels of oestrogen-related receptors alpha (ERRα).
