The current project was designed to examine dynamic changes in muscle wasting during sepsis. Researchers will focus the mitochondrial dysfunction of muscle cells and investigate the role of HO-1 in it. Researchers interested in identifying factors involved in the pathology of muscle wasting during sepsis.
Rapid muscle atrophy or muscle wasting occured to septic patients.Sepsis induced muscle wasting has become a severe, frequent, and persistent complication among critically ill patients. Multiple factors including ubiquitin-proteasome system, proinflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress contribute muscle proteolysis.
It is known that heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) possesses a variety of functions like anti-inflammatory, antioxidative and anti-apoptosis effects. In order to investigate the mechanisms under the condition, researchers are going to examine the role of HO-1 in muscle atrophy during sepsis.

| Patients with femoral fractures | non septic patients with a femoral fracture,who need an fixation surgery.standard surgery for femoral fracture and muscle biopsy will be performed. |

| therapy according to SSC guidelines and muscle biopsy | Procedure | Septic patients will be treated according to the international guidelines for management of severe sepsis and septic shock 2012. Skeletal muscle biopsies, blotted free from blood, are frozen within 30 seconds in liquid nitrogen, and stored in liquid nitrogen until processing.150-300 mg muscle (wet weight) was routinely obtained , which is more than sufficient for the analyses proposed, with some muscle remaining for any additional validation assays that may arise during the course of the research. Muscle will be processed either for isolation of mRNA/microRNA or protein |
