Mol Cell Biochem
. 2022 May;
477(11):2657-2667.
PMID: 35604517
Sepsis causes overproduction of inflammatory cytokines, organ dysfunction, and cognitive impairment in survivors. In addition to inflammation, metabolic changes occur according to the stage and severity of the disease. Understanding...

PMID: 34635094
Background: We previously reported that periodontal disease (PD) induces high arterial pressure variability (APV) consistent with sympathetic overactivity and elicits myocardial inflammation in Balb/c mice. However, it is unknown whether...

58(5):2133-2144.
PMID: 33415683
Sepsis promotes an inflammatory state in the central nervous system (CNS) that may cause autonomic, cognitive, and endocrine changes. Microglia, a resident immune cell of the CNS, is activated in...

Neurotox Res
. 2020 Jun;
38(4):871-886.
PMID: 32524380
Sepsis-associated encephalopathy causes brain dysfunction that can result in cognitive impairments in sepsis survivor patients. In previous work, we showed that simvastatin attenuated oxidative stress in brain structures related to...

PMID: 32120082
Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is a significant problem in patients with sepsis, and it is associated with a decrease in cognitive and sensitivity capability induced by systemic inflammation. SAE is implicated...
