ABSTRACT
High mobility group box-1(HMGB1)distributed widely.It exists in many organs.HMGB1 locates in nuclei and cytoplasm in normal condition.It involves in many activity of life(i.e.,duplication of DNA,cellular differentiation,gene expression).The immunocytes(i.e.,mononuclear macrophage and dendritic cells)secrete HMGB1 into the extracellular milieu when stimulated with LPS and cytokines.It acts as proinflammatory cytokines,activates inflammatory and immunological responses.As a late mediators of inflammation and last long,HMGB1 plays an important role in sepsis,so it may be a convenient and practical index in evaluating severity of sepsis and may be an important and new therapeutic target in sepsis.It has been initially proved in experimental and clinical study.
