Multi-Omics and Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Acute Lung Injury
Abstract
Traumatic injury is a leading cause of respiratory failure, where 2-4 percent of persons with trauma develop acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS). Approximately one-third of the patients progress to ALI/ARDS, and an estimated mortality rate of 40 percent is seen in trauma-associated ALI/ARDS. Furthermore, in ARDS, Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is the most frequent organ failure affecting almost 50 percent of the patients, increasing the mortality rate. Therefore, understanding the molecular differences between the survivor and non-survivors of ALI and developing biomarkers to predict ALI progression are urgently needed.
