Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This proposal hypothesizes that mitochondrial bioenergetics in the patient will correspond to mtDNA DAMPs levels and markers of inflammation. We predict these will serve as a prognostic indicator of Sepsis induced cardiac dysfunction (SICD) outcomes. Successful completion of these studies will provide a clearer understanding of the etiology of SICD development and therefore will have a high impact on biomedical research by identifying a new mechanism for understanding sepsis induced organ failure. Importantly, they will also provide a means for more directed and focused therapies, based upon individual bioenergetic/mitochondrial-mediated inflammation profiles. The combined, complementary expertise of the Mentor/co-primary investigators (Drs. Mathru and Ballinger) provide an excellent combination in both basic and translational research. They also have experience conducting studies and publications that will strengthen this research project. Importantly, the methods for characterizing mitochondrial bioenergetics from platelets were developed here at UAB, and methods for quantitative assessment of mtDNA DAMPs have been recently developed.
