Abstract:
Sepsis is life-threatening multiple organ failure (MOF) caused by the disorder of body's response to infection. Although it is the main reason of death in intensive care patients, the mechanism of sepsis-induced MOF is still unclear. As an essential organelle of cells, mitochondrial is responsible for many funtions in cells such as energy supply and signal regulation. Recent researches showed that mitochondrial dysfunction may be one of the important reasons of MOF. This review describes the pathophysiological functions of mitochondria and the pathological damage mechanisms of MOF in sepsis, it will provide the therapeutic targets or new ideas for clinical treatment of sepsis.
