Impaired vascular function in sepsis-surviving rats mediated by oxidative stress and Rho-Kinase pathway

Impaired vascular function in sepsis-surviving rats mediated by oxidative stress and Rho-Kinase pathway

We investigated long-lasting changes in endothelial and vascular function in adult rat survivors of severe sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model. For this, male Wistar rats (200–350 g) had their cecum punctured once (non-transfixing hole) with a 14-gauge needle. Performed in this...
