Renal Tubular Cell Mitochondrial Dysfunction Occurs Despite Preserved Renal Oxygen Delivery in Experimental Septic Acute Kidney Injury
Conclusions:
Renal dysfunction in sepsis occurs independently of hemodynamic instability or structural damage. Mitochondrial dysfunction mediated by circulating mediators that induce local oxidative stress may represent an important pathophysiologic mechanism.
