Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of a lipopolysaccharide receptor CD14-159C/T genomic polymorphism on CD14 gene expression as well as protein release, and the relation of sepsis susceptibility and prognosis in patients with extensive burns. METHODS: The study group consisted of 26 patients with burns covering more than 30% of the total body surface area. The CD14 gene polymorphism was determined by...
