Also alb-CRE<sup>+</sup>EDA floxed mice presented reduced survival, thus indicating a key role for EDA in protecting toward sepsis. This phenotype was associated with improved liver and spleen inflammatory profile. Ex vivo experiments showed that neutrophils bind to a larger extent to an FN_EDA + coated surface as compared to FN, thus potentially limiting their over-reactivity.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>Our study demonstrates that the inclusion of the EDA domain in fibronectin dampens the nflammatoryi consequences of sepsis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72324,"journal":{"name":"Atherosclerosis plus","volume":"52 ","pages":"Pages 23-31"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/11/7b/main.PMC10242638.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9652994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
