Role of autophagy in sepsis-induced skeletal muscle dysfunction, whole-body metabolism, and survival
2021-08-06
Abstract excerpt
Septic patients frequently develop skeletal muscle wasting and weakness, resulting in severe clinical consequences and adverse outcomes. Autophagy is a stress-induced degradative process essential to cell survival. Recent studies have demonstrated that sepsis triggers sustained induction of autophagy in skeletal muscles, although the impact of this enhanced autophagy on sepsis-induced muscle dysfunction remains un...
