Resumo

Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response caused by infection whose molecular mechanisms are still not completely understood. The early detection of sepsis remains a great challenge for clinicians because no single biomarker capable of its reliable prediction, hence, delayed diagnosis frequently undermines treatment efforts, thereby contributing to high mortality. There are several experimental approaches used to reveal the molecular mechanism of sepsis progression. Proteomics coupled with mass spectrometry made possible to identify differentially expressed proteins in clinical samples. Recent advancement in liquid chromatography-based separation methods and mass spectrometers resolution and sensitivity with absolute quantitation methods, made possible to use proteomics as a powerful tool for study of clinical samples with higher coverage proteome profiles. In recent years, number of proteomic studies have been done under sepsis and/ or in response to endotoxin and showed various signaling pathways, functions, and biomarkers. This review enlightened the proteomic progress in the last decade in sepsis. (AU)
