Surgical trauma and postoperative immune dysfunction.
BACKGROUND In postoperative sepsis, mortality is increased due to the surgically induced immune dysfunction. Further causes of this traumatic effect on the immune system include burn injuries and polytrauma, as well as endogenous traumata like stroke. Several animal models have been defined to analyse the characteristics of trauma-induced immune suppression. This article will correlate our resu...
متن کاملImmune dysfunction in cancer patients.
Immune deficiency in cancer patients is well documented, and tumor cells have developed a variety of cellular and molecular mechanisms to avoid antitumor immune responses. These mechanisms include defective presentation of tumor antigens on the cell surface and/or an inability of the host to effectively recognize these cells and target them for destruction. Tumor-induced defects are known to oc...
متن کاملTrauma: the role of the innate immune system
Immune dysfunction can provoke (multiple) organ failure in severely injured patients. This dysfunction manifests in two forms, which follow a biphasic pattern. During the first phase, in addition to the injury by trauma, organ damage is caused by the immune system during a systemic inflammatory response. During the second phase the patient is more susceptible for sepsis due to host defence fail...
متن کاملAssessment of immune organ dysfunction in critical illness: utility of innate immune response markers
In critically ill patients, organ dysfunctions are routinely assessed, monitored, and treated. Mounting data show that substantial critical illness-induced changes in the immune system can be observed in most ICU patients and that not only "hyper-inflammation" but also persistence of an anti-inflammatory phenotype (as in sepsis-associated immunosuppression) is associated with increased morbidit...
متن کاملsingle nucleotide polymorphisms of innate immune receptors in patients with renal rejection
background: the innate immunity plays an important role in the host response to transplantation by toll-like receptors and results in development of acute allograft rejection. the aim of this study was to evaluate the association of tlr2 and cd14 (co-receptor) gene polymorphisms with acute rejection in kidney transplant recipients. methods : the study was conducted in a population of 239 subj...
