Polarized Lung Inflammation and Tie2/Angiopoietin-Mediated Endothelial Dysfunction during Severe <i>Orientia tsutsugamushi</i> Infection

2019-08-02

Abstract excerpt

Orientia tsutsugamushi infection can cause acute lung injury and high mortality in humans; however, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, we tested a hypothesis that dysregulated pulmonary inflammation and Tie2-mediated endothelial malfunction contribute to lung damage. Using a murine model of lethal O. tsutsugamushi infection, we demonstrated pathological characteristics of vascular activation and tissue...
