| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Vasopressin deficiency contributes to the vasodilatation in the later stages of septic shock, and supplementary arginine vasopressin (AVP) infusion is increasingly being used to stabilize cardiocirculatory function in patients with advanced vasodilatory shock. However, the exact mechanism responsible for the vasopressin deficiency remains to be determined. Here we show that high mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), a late mediator of endotoxin lethality, is responsible for the vasopressin deficiency in endotoxemic rats. Administration of a neutralizing antibody against HMGB1 increased plasma vasopressin levels in endotoxemic rats, while administration of exogenous HMGB1 decreased plasma vasopressin levels.
