CYTOKINE EXPRESSION PROFILE OVER TIME IN SEVERELY BURNED PEDIATRIC PATIENTS
Abstract
A severe burn leads to hypermetabolism and catabolism resulting in compromised function and structure of essential organs. The massive release of cytokines is implicated in this hypermetabolic response. The aim of the present study was to compare cytokine expression profiles from severely burned children without signs of infections or inhalation injury (n = 19) to the cytokine profiles from normal, noninfected, nonburned children (n = 14). The …
