Survivin and caspases serum protein levels and survivin variants mRNA expression in sepsis

Abstract Sepsis is a dysregulated host response to infection related to devastating outcomes. Recently, interest has been shifted towards apoptotic and antiapoptotic pathobiology. Apoptosis is executed through the activation of caspases regulated by a number of antiapoptotic proteins, such as surviv...
