Does neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin attenuate injury in the rat cecal ligation and puncture model of sepsis via apoptosis inhibition?
NGAL can attenuate kidney injury and apoptosis in the rat CLP model of sepsis. And the protective effect of NGAL was probably due to the inhibition of apoptosis and lipid peroxidation, and increased expression of HO-1.
PAD was not associated with an increased prevalence of factor V G1691A, prothrombin G20210A, and MTHFR C677T mutations in the population studied. Thus, there is no indication that of one of these mutations may be a risk factor for chronic limb ischemia. However, the role of these mutations in acute limb ischemia remains to be clarified.
