Estrogen receptor β agonism increases survival in experimentally induced sepsis and ameliorates the genomic sepsis signature: A pharmacogenomic study
Christaki, Eirini; Opal, Steven M.; Jr, James C. Keith; Kessimian, Nubar; Palardy, J. E.; Parejo, N. A.; LaVallie, Edward R.; Racie, L.; Mounts, W.; Malamas, Michael S.; Mewshaw, Richard E.; Harris, Heather A.; Vlasuk, G. P. (2010)Background. Nonsteroidal agonists have been developed that selectively bind to and activate estrogen receptor β (ERβ) rather than estrogen receptor α (ERα). ERβ is expressed equally in both male and female mammals in ...

A monoclonal antibody against RAGE alters gene expression and is protective in experimental models of sepsis and pneumococcal pneumonia
Christaki, Eirini; Opal, Steven M.; Jr, James C. Keith; Kessimian, Nubar; Palardy, J. E.; Parejo, N. A.; Tan, X. Y.; Piche-Nicholas, N.; Tchistiakova, L.; Vlasuk, G. P.; Shields, K. M.; Feldman, Jeffrey L.; LaVallie, Edward R.; Arai, Maya; Mounts, W.; Pittman, D. D. (2011)The RAGE (receptor for advanced glycation end products) is believed to play a role in sepsis by perpetuating inflammation. The interaction of RAGE with a variety of host-derived ligands that accumulate during stress and ...
