Abstract
- Severe sepsis and septic shock are common and lethal conditions characterized by a systemic inflammatory response that is activated by invasive infection. In this study, a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced sepsis mice model was established to investigate the toxicities of LPS and the therapeutic effect of baicalin. Sera for clinical biochemistry and NMR metabolomic investigation, and liver and kidney tissues for histopathological examination, molecular biology measurement and NMR metabolomic profiling were collected. Multivariate analysis of metabolic profiles of the serum, liver and kidney extracts of mice revealed the occurrence of a severe inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and perturbances in energy and amino acid metabolism in LPS induced sepsis mice, which could be greatly ameliorated by baicalin treatment. This integrated <superscript>1</superscript>H NMR based metabolomics approach gave us a new insight into the pathology of LPS induced sepsis, and helped in understanding the therapeutic effects of baicalin in a holistic view.
