Abstract

Circulating levels of calcitonin precursors (CTpr), including procalcitonin (ProCT), increase up to several thousand-fold in human sepsis, and immunoneutralization improves survival in two animal models of this disease. Herein, we analyzed inflammation-mediated calcitonin I gene (CALC I) expression in human adipocyte primary cultures and in adipose tissue samples from infected and noninfected patients with different levels of serum ProCT. In ex vivo differentiated adipocytes, the expression of CT mRNA increased 24-fold (P textless 0.05) after the administration of Escherichia coli endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide) and
