Research Abstract |
Our previous study demonstrated that direct hemoperfusion using a new cytokine absorbing column (CTR treatment) reduced mortality and inhibited inflammatory responses in endotoxic-shock rats. The present research was performed to evaluate the effects of CTR treatment on hypercytokinemia induced by acute lung injury and hemorrhagic shock in rats. The present research demonstrated that the CTR treatment had beneficial effects on hypercytokinemia induced by acute lung injury and hemorrhagic shock in rats. These findings suggest that CTR treatment may be effective for the treatment of patients with hypercytokinemia.
