Abstract:
Surgical sepsis induced by major trauma, burns and hemorrhage remains a main cause of death of the patients in intensive care units, and may result in both the widespread activation and dysfunction of the innate and adaptive responses in the host immune system. A large amount of information concerning the subsets of innate and adaptive immune cells in sepsis has implicated that these cells, including neutrophils, macrophages, dendritic cells, T lymphocytes, regulatory T cells, and natural killer cells, have significant effects on immunoreactivity during acute insults or sepsis through modulating multiple receptor expressions or cytokine release, in turn contributing to the development and outcome of sepsis. Therefore, a deeper insight into the mechanism of immune regulatory dysfunction in surgical sepsis is of great significance in helping assess the prognosis of sepsis and guide the treatment of its complications.
