摘要

Background

Sepsis-induced myocardial inflammation involves complex molecular mechanisms that remain incompletely understood.

Methods

This study examined the dynamic temporal expression of critical inflammatory markers, including Toll-like receptors (TLRs), MYD88, Klotho, and stem cell-associated genes (KLF4, HOXA5, NANOG, and HIF1α) within a cecal ligation and puncture-induced murine model of sepsis.

Results

TLR2, TLR3, TLR4, TLR7 and MYD88 exhibited progressive upregulation across 24, 48, and 72 h, highlighting their pivotal role in inflammatory signaling. Klotho expression increased significantly during sepsis, stabilizing at later stages, suggesting a potential modulatory role. Stem cell-associated genes showed dynamic patterns, with KLF4 and NANOG displaying sustained elevation, HOXA5 peaking at 48 h, and HIF1α progressively rising to its highest levels at 72 h.

Conclusions

These findings underscore the interplay between inflammatory pathways and metabolic adaptation in sepsis-induced myocardial injury, potentially providing a foundation for targeted therapeutic strategies.
