| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The role of procalcitonin (PCT) in sepsis was investigated using PCT knockout mouse (PCT KO). However, there was no statistical difference of duration of survival between KO and wild injected of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), wild group showed a little higher survival rate than KO. And KO showed higher level of IL-6 and lower of IL-10 concentration in blood than wild. These results suggested that PCT have no effect on survival in sepsis, however reduces a condition of sepsis mediated by various cytokines.
