Protective effect of dexmedetomidine in cecal ligation perforation-induced acute lung injury through HMGB1/RAGE pathway regulation and pyroptosis activation

Sepsis remains a major cause of mortality and morbidity in intensive care units. Dexmedetomidine (DEX) has been reported to attenuate cecal ligation perforation (CLP)-stimulated acute lung injury (ALI) by downregulating high-mobility group protein 1 (HMGB1) and receptor for advanced glycation end pr...
