Maresin1 (MaR1), a new anti-inflammatory and proresolving lipid mediator, has been proven to exert organ-protective effects in septic animal models. However, the potential mechanisms are still not fully elucidated. In this study, we sought to explore the impact of MaR1 on metabolic dysfunction in cecal ligation and puncture- (CLP-) induced septic mice. We found that MaR1 significantly increased the overall survival rate and attenuated lung and liver injuries in septic mice. In addition, MaR1 markedly reduced the levels of proinflammatory cytokines (TNF- and IL-6) and alleviated mitochondrial damage. Based on a H NMR-based metabolomics analysis, CLP-induced septic mice had increased levels of acetate, pyruvate, and lactate in serum and decreased levels of alanine, aspartate, glutamate, and fumarate in lungs. However, these metabolic disorders, mainly involving energy and amino acid metabolism, can be recovered by MaR1 treatment. Therefore, our results suggest that the protective effects of MaR1 on sepsis could be related to the recovery of metabolic dysfunction and the alleviation of inflammation and mitochondrial damage.

Objective:  Septic acute lung injury (ALI) is a common complication of sepsis with high morbidity and mortality but lacks specific treatment. This study aimed to elucidate the role of circular RNA TLK1 (circTLK1) in neonatal septic ALI.

Study Design:  Murine cecal slurry was used to induce neonatal sepsis-induced ALI model in vivo.

Acute lung injury being one of the earliest and most severe complications during sepsis and macrophages play a key role in this process. To investigate the regulatory effects and potential mechanisms of adipose mesenchymal stem cell derived-exosomes (ADSC-exo) on macrophages and septic mice, ADSCs-exo was administrated to both LPS-induced macrophage and cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) induced sepsis mice. ADSCs-exo was confirmed to inhibit M1 polarization of macrophages and to reduce excessive inflammation.

Previous studies demonstrated that dexmedetomidine (Dex) posttreatment aggravated myocardial dysfunction and reduced survival in septic mice. Yet, whether Dex elicits similar effects in septic patients as defined by Sepsis-3 remains unknown. This study sought to assess the effects of Dex-based sedation on mortality and cardiac dysfunction in septic patients defined by Sepsis-3 and to further reveal the mechanisms in septic rats.

This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) on digestive function and intestinal barrier integrity in septic mice, and to explore its underlying mechanisms. A total of 70 healthy male BALB/C mice were randomly assigned into five groups: blank control group (BG, n = 12), control group (CG, n = 12), low-dose group (LDG, n = 12, 200 mg/kg), medium-dose group (MDG, n = 12, 400 mg/kg), and high-dose group (HDG, n = 12, 800 mg/kg). A sepsis model was established by cecal ligation and puncture, followed by treatment with different doses of LBP.

Aims: This study investigated the protective role of Annexin A1 (ANXA1) in sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) by examining its effects on brain vascular endothelium and blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity.

Methods: Mice were divided into four groups: wild type (WT), cecal ligation and puncture (CLP), ANXA1 knockout (ANXA1[-/-]), and ANXA1(-/-) with CLP. Neurobehavioral changes were assessed using the Y-maze test, while BBB integrity was evaluated through Evans blue dye (EBD) staining and permeability tests with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-dextran.
