Example text

Unlike TNFR-1, the only known function 1/SYSTEMIC RESPONSE TO INJURY AND METABOLIC SUPPORT of CD95 is to initiate programmed cell death. Neutrophils and macrophages express CD95, and this expression may have important implications in the cellular contribution to the inflammatory response. In fact, both clinical sepsis and experimental endotoxemia have demonstrated prolonged survival of neutrophils and diminished responsiveness to CD95 stimuli. Although the mechanisms are unclear, CD95 and TNFR activity may participate in organ injury during systemic inflammation.

Metabolically, cortisol potentiates the actions of glucagon and epinephrine that manifest as hyperglycemia. In the liver, cortisol stimulates the enzymatic activities favoring gluconeogenesis, but induces insulin resistance in muscles and adipose tissue. In skeletal muscle, cortisol induces protein degradation as well as the release of lactate that serve as substrates for hepatic gluconeogenesis. During injury, cortisol potentiates the release of free fatty acids, triglycerides, and glycerol from adipose tissue as a means of providing additional energy sources.

PGE2 also can inhibit hormone-stimulated lipolysis. Fatty Acid Metabolites The role of fatty acid metabolism potentially has a role in the inflammatory response. Most commercially prepared enteral nutrition formulas contain omega-6 fatty acids as the primary source of lipids. Omega-6 fatty acids also serve as precursors of inflammatory mediators associated with injury and the stress response. Such mediators include leukotrienes, prostaglandins, and platelet-activating factor. By contrast, the anti-inflammatory effects of omega-3 fatty acids on chronic autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and lupus have been documented in both animals and humans.
