Rapid dexamethasone treatment inhibits LPS-induced cytokine storm in mice

2023-12-07

Abstract excerpt

Severe infection-induced cytokine storm is an urgent medical syndrome with high mortality. To date, no therapy is available. This study shows that high concentrations of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induce cytokine storm within 48h and thus kill most experimental mice. Rapid, but not late dexamethasone administration remarkably inhibits cytokine storm and rescues LPS-treated mice. Monocytes and macrophages are the maj...
